Tabbing/Indenting within a cell
 
I'd like to have different levels of text within a cell. How do I do this?
In Text boxes, Tables, etc, using the Ctrl + Tab indents the text within the
cell.
Is there something within Excel that will do the following:

Initial line of text:
-different line of text
-next line of text
- etc.

When the Indent button is used - it moves all the text over.

Thanks,
Diane

Diane,

Nothing automatic - Excel isn't a word processor. You would need to format the cell for wrapping,
then type the first line, hit alt-Enter to insert a line feed, then use your space bar to space
over, etc., etc.

That's what I've been doing, I just wondered whether there was an easier way
to do that.
