vba - Insert line break in wrapped cell via code

Question

Is it possible to insert line break in a wrapped cell through VBA code? (similar to doing Alt-Enter when entering data manually)

I have set the cell's wrap text property to True via VBA code, and I am inserting data into it also through VBA code.

Answer 1

Yes. The VBA equivalent of AltEnter is to use a linebreak character:

ActiveCell.Value = "I am a " & Chr(10) & "test"

Note that this automatically sets WrapText to True.

Proof:

Sub test()
Dim c As Range
Set c = ActiveCell
c.WrapText = False
MsgBox "Activcell WrapText is " & c.WrapText
c.Value = "I am a " & Chr(10) & "test"
MsgBox "Activcell WrapText is " & c.WrapText
End Sub
