A very quick spreadcheat for Friday. If you need to type content in a cell and you want to see it in multiple lines then use alt + enter to break the content in several lines. See to the right for an example.
Bonus tip: If you are using formulas to create content in a cell by combining various text values and you want to introduce line breaks at certain points … For eg. you are creating an address field by combining house number, street name, city and zip code and you want to introduce line breaks after house number and street name then you can use CHAR(10). Like this:
=housenumber & CHAR(10) & streetname & CHAR(10) & city & zipcode
Remember when you do this, you need to enable wrap-text feature for that cell from cell formatting dailog (ctrl+1) to ensure proper display.
One Response to “Easily Convert JSON to Excel – Step by Step Tutorial”
Great guide! You mentioned that "Power Query in Excel offers a quick, easy and straightforward way to convert JSON to Excel." This is very true for simple structures. For those dealing with deeply nested JSON that Power Query struggles with, I've found a few tips helpful: 1) Flatten the JSON structure before importing if possible, 2) Use Python for more complex transformations as you suggested.
