Insert line break in cell

Normally, when you press the Enter key, Excel moves the cursor to the next cell. To insert a line break (i.e. a new line) inside a cell, you need to use a shortcut. Here at the steps: (1) Move the cursor where you want to break the line (2) Type Alt + Enter (3) Make sure "wrap text"is enabled to see lines wrap in cell: Notes You can use this technique to make nested IF formulas easier to read. You can also enter a new line using a formula. Mac Excel 365 supports Alt + Enter. Otherwise see original shortcut above.
