Rowan, I really appreciate you taking time to answer my question. I need to
know how to place multiple diagonal lines within a cell in Excell.
Respectfully,

1. Format > Cells > Patterns and then select one of the diagonal options
from the Patterns drop down.
2. Display the Drawing Toolbar and add the lines manually using the Line
function (click and drag).
To fill a cell with multiple diagonal line patterns in a cell:
Select the cell(s).
From Styles on the menu ribbon, select New Cell Style
Enter Style name, for example: SlashRight or SlashLeft
Click on the Format button
Select the Fill tab
Select Pattern Style drop-down arrow
Select your desired pattern
Click OK
