ALT-ENTER in a concatenate formula

T

Totteridge Ram

Hi all

I have the formuale =concatenate(A1,CHAR(10),A2), expecting A1 and A2 to be
on different lines. But all I get is this the two figures on the same line
with a funny symbol in between (it looks like a square with a bold line on
top and bottom).

I've also tried CHAR(13) but no luck.

Can you help? Thanks.

You have to change the cell format to Wrap Text Alignment

Go to Format|Cells and in the Alignment tab, pick Wrap Tex

Alt+Enter will work for cells without formulas...Here you need to set
'WrapText' from Format>Cells>Alignment

'Alternate
=A1 & CHAR(10) & A2

If this post helps click Yes
