I would like to add text to a cell just like using word. That is, being able
to type a short line and hit return for the next line. Right now I can not
have separate lines of text.
I would like it to look something like this.

The 1st stop is Dallas.
Go to the top of the hill and turn right at the tee. Go 14 miles to the
light and turn right again.

Call me at 12:00 PM.

And can parts of the text be bold or have color?
Thanks,
Art

Type first line then hit Alt + ENTER to give a linefeed within the cell.

Yes, you can boild and color text within a cell.

In the formula bar select the part(s) of the text to bold and color and
format as such.
