    How to paste cell data with a line break without quotation marks (formula data)?

    Edited:
    I've got cell A10 with data:

    Apple

    Orange



    Notice there is a line break in there. When I copy this to another program, it ends up coming out like:


    "Apple

    Orange"


    Is there a way of removing the quotations while keeping the data as is (with the line break) keeping in mind cell A10 is a formula'd cell?

    Re: How to paste cell data with a line break without quotation marks (formula data)?

    This came up in another thread some time ago (http://www.excelforum.com/excel-gene...-suppress.html). Unfortunately, this happens when you paste from Excel into any program (such as Notepad) which can't parse the line-break formatting (that is, it doesn't 'understand' it). The only way I know of to get round it is to paste the text into a program which can parse it (such as MS Word) and then copy-paste again into where you need it.

    Probably not what you wanted to hear, sorry!

    If your problem is solved, please go to 'Thread Tools' above your first post and 'Mark this Thread as Solved'.
    If you use commas as your decimal separator (1,23 instead of 1.23) then please replace commas with semi-colons in your formulae.
    You don't need to give me rep if I helped, but a thank-you is nice.
