I need to put a list of names in a cell.  It is cumbersome to use spaces to
get to the next line.  Is there a way that I can hit enter(or some other
function)  to move to a next line within the same cell.

Thanks

To make a break within a cell press <Alt> and <Enter>

As per Bill's answer, however, a list in this format is generally indicative
of bad spreadsheet design, as entries should really have their own cells.
