Help with the Alt-Enter function
I have not been able to find the answer to this question in the forum. I have tried using the Alt-Enter to enter data on multiple lines in a cell. However, when I leave the cell, the data reverts to all being on the same line. It is not displayed on separate lines as I want it to be.
What am I missing or doing wrong to cause it to revert to a single line of text instead of remaining on separate lines the way it was entered?

I use ALT+Enter all the time in TEXT fields and do not seem to have any issue with losing the format. Each line has to end with an ALT-Enter

Hi, @tsingleton
Make sure that you’ve enabled the Wrap feature. (see screenshot below)
Did that fix it?
I hope that helps!
Have a fantastic weekend!
