Case Sensitive Sorting (all Caps First, Then All Lowercase)
Sep 12, 2009
Is it possible to have this type of case sensitive sorting (first all words beginning with a capital later and then all cells beginning with a lowercase letter):
I have been battling with excel for weeks now trying to get some data to display the way I want it to.
The plan is to enter (into individual cells) some letters, some lower case, some upper case ie, A A a A a C d. Some of these will be displayed together in another cell like this: AAaA, AaCd. My problem is that I want them all to be displayed Upper case letters first, lower case second like this: AAAa, ACad. No amount of my inexperienced fumbling with excel's tools has worked so far.
I am playing around with a table for genetics so if my results in a cell are aAbBCcdD, I need it to display: AaBbCcDd. Is it possible?
I am using the following code behind this sheet. In row 9 and column D if I put a lower case letter i want to convert it to uppercase automatically can you see what I am doing wrong.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) 'Debug.Print Target.Text & " " & Target.Value & " " & Target.Value2 Dim vVal 'If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub If Intersect(Target, Range("C9:D28")) Is Nothing _ And Intersect(Target, Range("G9:H28")) Is Nothing _ And Intersect(Target, Range("K9:L28")) Is Nothing _ And Intersect(Target, Range("O9:P28")) Is Nothing _ And Intersect(Target, Range("S9:T28")) Is Nothing _ And Intersect(Target, Range("W9:X28")) Is Nothing _......
I have created a text convertor which will convert any text into upper case or lowercase (not very complex but very handy!) Is there anyway way that when text is in uppercase and I convert it to lower case that it makes every character after a full stop in upper case
Example DAVID WAS NOT WELL. HE WENT HOME to David was not well. He went home
I have a spreadsheet which I use to count the occurrences of a value against a range. Basically if the value is uppercase I count as 1 and for lowercase 0.5
This spreadsheet is used as a holiday chart and I have previously used the formula below however, for some reason it no longer works. Not even if I change the lookup value.
The exact function takes a single cell as its value but I have a spreadsheet which allows a range. Although I cannot change it….
I have looked in conditional formatting, but do not see a way to change lower case to all caps. Is there a way to do this so that when someone types in a cell it returns all caps instead of leaving it in lower case?
in making this macro non case-sensitive. So when a user searches a company name in the worksheet they do not require to type in the company name exactly as it appears.
For example; when searching Microsoft they can type "microsoft" and the macro would take the user to Microsoft.
I would also like to know if it is possible to add a feature that keeps the search dialogue open so the user can search the next possible match. If the user was to type in "mirco" and the search would show the user any company name with the word micro in it.

I have recently taken on the task of creating a large protected program (without macros) that automatically updates a PowerPoint presentation. I created corresponding workbooks for each sheet in the original (master) workbook. The corresponding workbooks are then used to paste object into the power point presentation. The only problem is it will not update format (text color) changes into the corresponding workbook. I have solved half the problem with conditional formatting, but I want to conditionally format the color of text to two different colors blue if Aa and Red if all CAPS. how to differentiate between Standard word and All CAPS in the conditional formatting.
I need a macro that will format a a column based on content that is case sensitive. Example, a cell that contains a capital 'P' will be shaded gray with red text where a cell that contains a lower case 'p' will not change format.
I have a user form to get some input from the user and want to make sure that in some textboxes user should be able enter only text i.e A to Z or a-z no numbers or special charecters.
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click() Dim RegEx As Object Dim Strng As String
Strng = CStr(Me.TextBox1.Value) Set RegEx = CreateObject("vbscript.regexp") With RegEx .Pattern = "^[A-Z]{2}/d+/d{2}$" If Not .test(Strng) Then MsgBox "Invalid Format: TextBox1" End With Set RegEx = Nothing End Sub ..............................
I need a macro or excel formula so that it will remove duplicate products- case sensitive(removing all duplicate prod using using excel,that i know.) i.e. it should not consider Blue BLUE as duplicate. only consider Blue Blue as duplicate.
So the macro should work same as data -> remove duplicate function already exists in excel, except it will be case sensitive..
I am using the this formula to look up data using 0 to show not found. VLOOKUP is acting case sensitive. The Master Array data is in caps and the input is in lower case. There are no spurious spaces. Here are the results:
Code Name 0 River Branch Foundation = not found X RIVER BRANCH FOUNDATION = found - in array as caps
I have an issue with case sensitive while creating forms in Excel VBA. When i compared the text "EXCEL" and "excel" it showing as both the words are not equal/same.
Is there any code to compare the words/inputs without case sensitive.
I'm looking for a way of keeping case sensitive data in a range of cells, before using Data Consolidate, which when merged afterwards, Consolidate removes the case sensitivity and combines the quantities into one.
Check out this simple table as an example >
A B C D E F G H
1 TEXT QTY TEXT QTY TEXT QTY TEXT QTY
2 and 3 and 2 and 10 and 5
[Code] .........
Cells A1-B7 and C1-D7 are two sets of original data, before consolidation.
Cells E1-F4 are the result of applying a Data Consolidate operation to the A1-B7 and C1-D7 ranges - note how the merged result ignores the case sensitive condition in the original ranges.
Cells G1-H7 is the post-consolidation result that I'm looking for, where the original text case is maintained.
Add a column next to the first name. The in that column use the formula =Proper(A1), A1 being the cell that contains the first name. Then copy that cell down. Do the same for Last Names. Then keep the cell values, and delete the original set.
Should be an easier way I think (selecting the entire column and using conditional formatting) but MS hasn't seen fit to do this yet.

Is it possible to convert to lowercase all words unless a word has two or more consecutive capitals or two or more consecutive capitals followed by fullstop?
I.e.
This Is a Test (TIT) This Is a Test (T.I.T.) Αυτό Είναι Δοκιμή (ΑΕΔ) Αυτό Είναι Δοκιμή (Α.Ε.Δ.)
should become
this is a test (TIT) this is a test (T.I.T.) αυτό είναι δοκιμή (ΑΕΔ) αυτό είναι δοκιμή (Α.Ε.Δ.)
GLOBAL DESCRIPTION GLOBAL DESCRIPTION1 Particular description1 GLOBAL DESCRIPTION1 Particular description2 GLOBAL DESCRIPTION2 GLOBAL DESCRIPTION2 Particular description1 GLOBAL DESCRIPTION2 Particular description2
I want to to have in the second column:
GLOBAL DESCRIPTION1 Particular description1 Particular description2 GLOBAL DESCRIPTION2 Particular description1 Particular description2
So far I have this: +IF(EXACT(A1;UPPERCASE(A1));A1;+RIGHT(A1;LEN(A1)-(FIND(X;A1;1)-1)))
X standing for the position of the first lowercase, which I don't know how to get.
Is there a way to get Excel to automatically change the first letter of single word entry to lowercase in each cell of the first row of my worksheet leaving the case the same for all other letters?
I've got a pretty intense macro already written, a lot of Select Case components. At the end, if nothing matches I'd like to just copy the cell above to the cell below. However, there is a range of about 400 cells in length, so I'd need some sort of wildcard for range.
Rows("2:2").Select Selection.Insert Shift:=xlDown, CopyOrigin:=xlFormatFromLeftOrAbove Dim Cell As Variant For Each Cell In Range("A1:OL1") Select Case Cell.Value Case "Eng1" Cell.Offset(1, 0).Value = "Engine One" tons more in the middle here Case Else Cell.Offset(1, 0).Value = "N/A"
Rather then returning "N/A", how could I reference the cell above and just copy it instead?
I like the proper formula and find it handy, however do you know if there is a formula that would only keep the first letter in the cell at caps and reduce the rest to lower case, ie
A1 = MY DOG IS WHITE proper(A1) = My Dog Is White what I want is only first letter caps = My dog is white. I'va had a decent look around but can't find anything that would do this?
