line break not working
RE: To start a new line of text or add spacing between lines or paragraphs of text in a worksheet cell, press CONTROL + OPTION + RETURN to insert a line break
I have recently updated to Mac OS Monterey and have Excel v16 and the line break doesn't seem to be working. I have restarted Xcel.
Found this with a browser search:
``In Excel 365 for Mac, you can also use Option + Return. Option is the equivalent of the Alt key on Windows, so it seems the original Windows shortcut (Alt + Enter) now works for Mac too.``
I'm not familiar with Excel for Mac, and I do not have Excel for Mac (or even a Mac) to try this myself.

Yes, that worked! Thank you.
- NOTHING works for me. I've wasted half of my day. I'm moving to Pages. To heck with Microsoft.
