Is there a way to place a hard return(carriage return) in a cell with wrap
text format
so as to align text in the way user wants rather than what excel places?
Thanks

Sure. Where you want a new line just press Alt+Enter. To remove that just
place the cursor at the end of the line before the new line and press Delete

In a formula, you can use CHAR(10) to insert a line break. E.g.,

="abc"&CHAR(10)&"cde"

If you are entering text directly into the cell, use ALT ENTER to insert a
line break.
