    Text in a Split Cell

    Hello,

    I have split a cell with a diagonal border in a chart (see attachment). The "Work Done" indicates the columns and is fine as is. I want to put "Properties" in the lower left corner of the cell to indicate the rows, but have been unable to do this. The word wrap for the cell is on. How do I do this?splitcell.JPG

    (Note: you may see the image twice: inserted, and as an attachment. When I added the image as an attachment there was no confirmation that I had done so.)

    Thanks

    Pete

    It would be easier to help if you attached the workbook.

    So far as I know you can't easily do what you want, you could use Alt-Enter to insert line breaks in the cell to make it appear as though the cell is split

    Alt-Enter worked fine. Thank you.
