Standard spacing in an Excel cell

Hi there,

 

A quick query, I am working in excel and I need to know how to add a standard spacing to within a cell. I only want to add 5 spaces to the start of a cell, so that any text is offset a little. THe indentation button provides an indentation however how do you change the size of this? Can it be customised?

Perhaps there is a better way?

 

Thanks,

Lou

    Select the cell or cells.

    On the Home tab of the ribbon, click the arrow in the lower right corner of the Alignment group.

    Set the Indent to 4 or 5 - you'll have to experiment what works best for you. It also depends on the font that you use.
