Any way to collapse the content of several cells into the top cell in a selected range?

I'm converting PPT tables to Excel, but any table cell with multiple lines gets copied over as multiple excel cells. I want to quickly selected a range of cells and have all the content go back into that top cell. Would prefer not to merge cells unless there's clean way to do that
