Does Alt-Enter insert a non-printing character in a cell string?
You can force a carriage return linfeed into an Excel cell to cause the
visible text to wrap by using the key combination Alt-Enter. But does doing that actually insert something into the text string of that cell? Would there be an invisible chr(010) + chr(013) in the text string? -- Henry Stock, Network Administrator onProject.com 3 Wing Drive Cedar Knolls, NJ 07927-1006 |

an invisible char(10).
You can check it out be using the LEN function. -- Regards, Tom Ogilvy "Henry Stock" wrote in message ...

Does Alt-Enter insert a non-printing character in a cell string?
Check further with some VBA:
Sub checkASC() Dim i For i = 1 To Len(Selection) MsgBox Mid(Selection, i, 1) & " is ASC code " & Asc(Mid(Selection, i, 1)) Next i End Sub "Tom Ogilvy" wrote in message ... an invisible char(10).
