I have two pieces of data in one cell and I want to put a carriage return between them when it is entered into a google sheet and I want the original text to be in there. Does anyone know how to do that?

Hi @AdamZap! 👋

You’d need to hold the Shift button down on your keyboard and press Return button a couple of times to space out the old and new values.

For example:

That would then appear in the Google Sheets spreadsheet like this:

I hope that helps. If I’ve misunderstood what you’re wanting to do here or you encounter any issues on that do let me know!
