Extract Data From a Cell

When typing in a cell you can use to drop to the next line. I believe this inserts a carriage return.

Is there a formula to get the data after the last carriage return?

Alt+Enter actually inserts a line feed (ASCII character 10).

Let’s say you have a multi-line text in cell A1. The following array formula (confirmed with Ctrl+Shift+Enter) will return the text of the last line:

=RIGHT(A1,LEN(A1)-MAX(ROW(INDIRECT(“1:”&LEN(A1)))*(MID(A1,ROW(INDIRECT(“1:”&LEN(A1))),1)=CHAR(10))))
