    Excel 'Special' Character

    I am attempting to combine three columns into one. This is not a problem.
    However, I would like to combine the info into two 'lines' in the result
    field. On the keyboard I would use 'Alt' + 'Enter'. Is there a 'special'
    code for this 'Alt' + 'Enter' that I can include in a formula?

    Result Column1 Column2 Column3
    ----------------------------------------------------
    Foltz Foltz Dan Sue
    Dan & Sue
    ----------------------------------------------------
    Result is only 1 cell.

    I can handle the remainder of the formula but need to 'hard' code for the
    'Alt' + 'Shift'. LLike in Word, you can do a find for a paragraph marker by
    using '^p' or a tab using '^t'.

    Thanks for any help you might provide.

    Try =A1&CHAR(10)&B1
    You will need to use: Format | Cell -> alignment ->wrap text
