Edit content in a cell
To enter content in an empty cell, click the cell and add your content. To edit a cell that already has content, double-click the cell and edit the content. Alternatively, you can click the cell once and press Enter or F2.
You can create lines breaks within a cell while editing if you want to improve the look of text that requires line breaks, such as addresses. To create a line break, place your cursor in a cell and press Ctrl+Enter.
