RE: adding alot of text into one cell
Hello Ben
Thank you for your question.
To have text on more than one line inside a cell, you need to use Wrap Text. There are two ways to use this.
1. Select the cell, then go to Format - Cell - Alignment then tick the Wrap Text box. Then if necessary resize the column width/row height to control how many lines the text goes onto.
2. As you are typing into the cell, press Alt+Enter together to make a new line when you want to.
Kind regards
Amanda

To overcome this you have to do the the following. |
