Do you mean within a cell with text wrapping turned on? You can only change the font size, you have no direct control over line spacing within a cell.

If you mean between cells, you can change the row height, of course.

    No version of Excel has ever had a line spacing function so it was never "taken out" as you state.

    Office comes bundles with Word.................use that application for your word processing and leave Excel to the number-crunching.

    AGREE!!

    Since this MS decission (taking out line spacing) was not given by God in Mount Sinai (the ten mandaments) it can be changed very quickly

    please do it
