Adding New Lines to Cells in Excel for the Mac

Posted on February 5, 2009 by Todd Kulesza

In case anyone else had as much trouble figuring this out as I did… if you want to break up a cell in the Mac edition of Microsoft Excel into multiple lines, you need to hold down the Option and Command keys while pressing Return. This is a little different than the Windows edition of Excel, where you hold down Alt while pressing Return. Anyway, it seems to work well, and now I can get nicely-formatted text into my Excel documents!

  Thank youuuuuu. The only thing more infuriating than Office is Office Help. It seems every answer I get is from somewhere outside the Office support “universe”.

Kudos, Mr K. You single-handedly provided better support for Excel:Mac product than Microsoft. To their shame.

For some reason this isn’t working for me. option+command+enter is bringing up a quick play window for iTunes. Anyone know how to disable that so I can use that keystroke for excel?

Thanks,

Thank you very much…
You can see by the steady stream of “thank you” replies (more than 18 months now) that this is much needed and hard-to-find tip.
Just for a moment, consider how much time it took to offer this advice and then the resultant positive impact on so many people (imagine the countless many that have benefited but did not write their thanks). This might seem to overstate this.. but how many individuals were out there tearing their hair out as a deadline was bearing down on them only to have this stupid little frustration get in their way.

Well done, and again, thank you.

It is such a pain that Excel in Mac is so different from Windows. I find the Mac version very awkward.

The firmware will include the option to unlock 30 exclusive levels of the Angry

the update is released. and this is something that Imation claims sets Iron Key apart from other bootable USB flash drives.

Another advantage that the Mac has is that you can increase your productivity when working on multiple programs because it is a lot faster and easier.
