Fix for: How to write multi lines in one Excel cell?

Low Risk

What you want to do is to wrap the text in the current cell. You can do this manually by pressing Alt + Enter every time you want a new line Or, you can set this as the default behaviour by pressing the Wrap Text in the Home tab on the Ribbon. Now, whenever you hit enter, it will automatically wrap the text onto a new line rather than a new cell.
