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.

    Yes.  With text wrap on and having multiple lines, how do I adjust the spacing between lines.

    You are replying to a post by Hans who states in the post that you have no direct control over the spacing within a cell.

    That feature has not changed since April 16, 2011

    I have the same requirement... Is there a way to ask Microsoft to remedy this? It seems to be a simple one to solve...

    MS has stated it will monitor these forums to garner suggestions and ideas that can be

    implemented with an eye toward making their products more user-friendly.
