Insert Line Break in Excel To move to a new line in an Excel cell, simply type text in the cell as normal and then press enter while holding down the alt key.

You can also insert a manual line break when you have text that won't fit in the width of a cell. The line break forces your text to display on multiple lines within the cell.

Adding a text to a cell in Excel using Formula requires use of ampersand operator, CONCAT function, or the LEFT, RIGHT, and LEN functions.
