Choose the Cell. Type the first line and press Alt+Cmd+Enter keys. Also use Control + Option + Enter or Control + Command + Enter keys to create/add a line break in the cell. Note: These keyboard keys combination work in both Excel for Mac 2011 or later versions. My Excel file contains cells with manual line breaks ('alt + enter'). Before I translate the text I would like to remove them, replacing by a code (for example ) and then after the translation replace it back again. Excel seems not to support this, so I have to find our which code I should use for that. Line break in excel means inserting a new line in any cell value, simply pressing enter will take us to the next cell, to insert a line break we can use the keyboard shortcut which is ALT + Enter to insert a new line inside a cell, as we insert a line break the height of the cell also increases as it represents the data in the cell.

How to add line breaks in Excel
Most of us use line breaks without even thinking about it. They can be used to start a new paragraph in Microsoft Word. They can even be used in everyday situations, like when you're writing an email, posting to Facebook, or commenting on something you saw or read online.
Line breaks are pretty easy to add in most programs—all you have to do is press Enter on your keyboard, and voilà! One of the few places this doesn't work is Excel. If you've ever tried hitting Enter there, you know it just takes you to the next cell in your worksheet.
Not to worry. There's a simple keyboard shortcut that will let you add as many line breaks as you want—inside any cell. Go ahead and try it! This works in Google Sheets too.
- Windows: Alt+Enter
- Mac: Ctrl+Option+Enter
Just use the shortcut whenever you want to insert a line break (and save the Enter key for navigating to the next cell). This might take some getting used to, but can come in handy depending on what you're working on. Take the example below. We've used line breaks to make sure each address appears on two lines.
One word of caution: You probably don't want to rely on line breaks too much. After all, Excel already has a great system for organizing and separating data: all of those thousands and thousands of tiny cells in your worksheet!

The more you rely on cells for organization, the better Excel will work for you. But when you desperately want to add a line break—and Enter simply isn't working—it's good to know that you can.
