    Can I do text bullets within an excel cell?

    I would like to create in one excel cell a paragraph with an opening sentence
    followed by bulleted items just like in Word. Is that possible other than
    using a workaround the would use one cell for the sentence then indented by
    using a separate column and cell?

    Try something like this:

    Select a cell
    Enter some text
    Hold down the [alt] key and press [enter]
    While holding down the [alt] key type 0149...release the [alt] key
    Type the bullet point text
    Hold down the [alt] key and press [enter]
    repeat

    Note: The [alt][enter] combination inserts a "hard carriage return" in the
    cell.

    Does that help?
