How can I make a newline in an Openoffice.org Calc formula?

Solution 1:

It looks like char(10) actually did the trick, but it's just not visible in the sheet. When the data from the spreadsheet is used in a mail merge later (for address labels), the newline is there!

Solution 2:

On Linux you can use:

=CONCATENATE("line 1";char(10);"line2")

Solution 3:

Type CTRL+Enter in an unused cell, then in the formula for K2 use I2&(address of the cell with the CTRL+Enter)&J2

I stumbled upon it by accident (playing a hunch) and it displays correctly and prints correctly...
