=IF(A1 <> "", CHAR(149) & " " & SUBSTITUTE(A1, CHAR(10), CHAR(10) & CHAR(149) & " "), "")

1. right-click this link and click "Save Link As..." (or "Save Target As...") to save my add-in, "List 2013-05-01.xla"*, to your computer.
   
2. I recommend saving it to
   • C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Excel\XLSTART (for Win7) or
   • C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\Application Data\Microsoft\Excel\XLSTART (for Win XP)
     ...XLAs saved to the XLSTART directory automatically open when I start Excel.
3. use the BULLET() function to create a bulleted list. Examples shown below.
   

The BULLET() function takes up to three arguments:

1. (required) the text (typically a cell reference) to be shown in bulleted format
2. (optional) nudge left indent for wrapped lines (default is 0)
3. (optional) nudge right margin for all lines (default is 0; positive numbers make lines longer, negative numbers make lines shorter)

(Hat tip to Skip Vought's "HangingIndent" function: bit.ly/hangingindent.)
