    automatically drop data to next line

    I have a cell that looks like this

    John Doe 123 N. 1st Street Miami, FL 12345

    Is there a formula, or something I can do to get it to look like this

    John Doe
    123 N. 1st Street
    Miami, FL 12345

    Without having to go through and press enter and resize all of the column
    widths. I swear I've seen something that looks like a little box that you
    can put between things in a cell that will make it automatically drop to the
    next line.

    Thanks!!

    Hi

    Excel can do this in a round-about way, but it needs to know where you want the line breaks.

    If your cell said

    John Doe, 123 N. 1st Street, Miami FL 12345

    You could use text to columns to split the cell into three and then concatenate back into one by using

    =a1&char(10)&b1&char(10)&c1

    Hope this helps

    Colin
