Changing Text From All CAPS To Caps
Apr 20, 2009Does anyone have a way to change columns of text entered in all caps to the initial capital letter and the rest of the text in small letters.
As in: JONES to Jones.
Change ALL CAPS To Initial Caps Only
Sep 6, 2005Add 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.

How To Format All Caps Text Into Properly Capitalized Text
Aug 8, 2014I have a few tasks which I have been doing manually because I do not know if there is a way to accomplish these tasks automatically via some excel formulas.
My first task requires me to take an address, for example: 1234 CAMBIE STREET, and format it such that it is properly capitalized (only capital letters in the front of words) like this: 1234 Cambie Street
My second task involves taking an address, for example: 1234 1st Avenue W, and rearranging it such that the direction is in front of the street name like so: 1234 W 1st Avenue. What makes this task potentially even more complicated is that not all the addresses I am working with require the rearrangement, so I can't simply have a formula that puts the last group of characters in front of the first group of characters because that may screw up addresses that don't require this formatting.
My third task demands that 2 columns of names are combined into one column, while also simultaneously placing a "&" between the names. For example: Jonathan Parkinson | Sarah Parkinson turns into Jonathan Parkinson & Sarah Parkinson. Now I do understand how to use a simple combining formula (=a1&" & "&b1) but it isn't that simple. The columns are not all filled with names. Some pairs may have no names, whereas others may have only one name. Because of this, the formula I used as an example will result in many instances where all I see is a "&", and other instances where I see the first name, followed by an unnecessary "&".
So far, for the majority of these problems, I've been using a combination of manual data input, and the replace function, but I really do hope there is a faster and better way to go about these tasks.

Cell Number Format And Display - 2003
Dec 2, 2009I enter in numbers, eg: 1, 2, 10, 24, 100, 1000 in a consecqutive cell range
They display as: 0.01, 0.02, 0.1, 0.24, 1, 10. Default cell format is general. If I change cell format to Number (with default display of 2 decimal points) it displays: 0.01, 0.02, 0.10, 0.24, 1.00, 10.00. If I also specify no decimal points, it displays: 0,0,0,0,1,10
The only way I can get the numbers I enter to display (and store) as 1,2,10,24, 100, 1000 is to change cell format to text and THEN retype th numbers into the cells. But, then it creates the green error comment in top left of each cell.
Format Cell To Display Number With X Added 0s
Oct 23, 2012Is it possible to format a cell so that it displays 6x 0's after the number?
I.e. If cell A1 contains the number 14, id like it to display 14000000
However, that 14 million is a monetary value, so I would want it to also display $ , & .
If I change the number the following week to 21, it automatically becomes $21,000,000.00
Ive tried formatting it as a custom, but that only seems to had 6x 0's before the number
Input And Display Data In Cell In H:mm Format Without Changing To Time
Feb 25, 2010Can i put into the cells B38-AF38, that would display the sum of B20:AF20 + B24:AF24 + B28:AF28 + B32:AF32 +B36:AF36 in a h:mm format.
When imputing the data into a cell in a h:mm format, I need it to display in that cell and formula bar the h:mm format without having to put an apostrophe in front of "h" or ":mm" value. Once complete, this form is going to go to other trainers to use on their computers and I dont think they would remember to keep putting an apostrophe before the data.
Example:
B20= 1:15 (1h15m) NOT 1:15:00 AM
B24= :30 (30min)
B28= :45 (45min)
B32= 1:45 (1h45m) NOT 1:45:00 AM
B38= 4:15 (4h15min)
I have attached a copy of the form for better clarification.
It doesnt seem to be complicated, but it's certainly a lot more than I thought.
How To Format Display In Combobox
Jul 21, 2014I have a range from a column in my Excel table that is formatted ##-##/##. A number like 1.125 would look like 1-1/8.
I also have some values that are text, such as: #6 (I'm working with threads). I use # because it is not the same thing as 6, which could be 6 millimeters or 6 inches.

ComboBox Display Format
Jan 22, 2013I have set up a UserForm containing a ComboBox, listing all suppliers. Upon invocation, the form becomes visible and the user enters a letter on the CB window, to which the CB displays the first entry starting with the user's input.
What I'd like to do is to have the CB expand its window, so that upon entering a letter the window shows something like, say, 5 entries, of which the top one is the first occurrence starting with that letter. Normally, clicking on the down arrow would do that, but I wonder if I can save them the keystroke.

View 3 Replies View RelatedDisplay Of Marksheet Format
May 10, 2007I am having a data of about 500 students and
each student has 6 subjects A,B,C,D,E,and F. Now the thing is that it is not necessary that a
student must give all papers to pass in exam, it depends on what options the student has
selected. We have made a table in a form given below
RollNO. Name. A Mark Grade B Mark Grade and so on till F Mark Grade.
In the next sheet we have used the function V lookup and printed a format of marksheet as
follows:
Roll No.
Name
Subject Marks Grade
A
B
C
D
E
F
ALL USING VLOOKUP
Vlookup Vlookup Vlookup
so when in the next sheet we enter the roll no. the name field and the subject marks and grade
field all Come automatically, now let me tell u the exact problem, if a student has not given C
and E subject, because of Vlook up function ans using if function the fields in place of C and E
subject are left blank and the marksheet is not looking good. Now what i want is that if a
student has not given C paper the subject, mark and grade of D paper should come in place of C
paper place,, so that there would be no gap.. if a student has only attempted paper F instead of

Display Dates In A Specific Format

Format To Display Set Text Length
Sep 17, 2013I'm trying to avoid using merged cells or text wrapping with altered row height to display some text in multiple rows - similar to using centre across selection to have a header across multiple columns without merging. The guys that use the sheet type a comment that is relevant to five rows and the easy solution here would be to just type the first portion of the comment in the first row (about 30 characters will display in the column width available), then put the next 30 characters in the next row and so on but the guys keep getting lazy and merging the cells so they can type the comments more easily. I can lock the sheet or force validation but I think there's a better solution.
I can effectively "wrap" the text across the five rows the header is relevant to by using a formula to pick up everything except the first 30 characters of each cell. Ie if they type whatever they want in cell B16 then I can use this formula to break it in to 30 character lengths to "wrap" it in to the next four rows:
=IF(LEN(B17)>30,RIGHT(B17,(LEN(B17)-30)),""),
And I'm sure it would be easy enough to use search with the formula to break it where there is a space in the text so partial words don't flow over.
BUT because the text ends up slightly different widths I want to use formats to force only 30 characters to display (whilst keeping the remainder of the text string intact). I can't figure out the syntax to format only 30 text characters to display but you can easily do it with numbers and dates and so on.
Display Format Of Userform TextBox
May 12, 2013A particular textbox in myuserform requires a displayed format of 000.000. I would like the user to enter a no less, and no more, than 6 digits. On tab, the textbox displays that value in the preferred format.
eg. enter 123456, TAB, results in textbox display of 123.456
I have tried ...
Code:
[Private Sub freq_AfterUpdate()
freq = Format(freq, "000.000")
End Sub
But this results in 123456.000

Three Little Words Won't Change To All CAPS
Feb 27, 2008I was handed an Excel Spreadsheet containing a list of names. Within the sheet there are three names (Elizabeth, Amy, and Daniel) that contain upper and lower case letters. The desire is that all names are in CAPS. However, these three names refuse to remain as CAPS when overwritten in the cell. As a note, other names can be typed in those cells and will successfully remain as typed, either U/L case or all CAPS. Another note, if the Replace feature is used, the names remain as Replaced.

Display Decimal Value Input As String Format
Aug 16, 2012I'm writing a macro that will automatically change the display in a column of cells.
The input in the cell would be a decimal value, (e.g. 1, 1.25, 1.5, 1.75, 2). As of now, I think the only input options are whole numbers and 1/4, 1/2, 3/4 fractions.
After inputting the decimal value, the cell should update to display the value as the following string format :
Input: 1.25
Displays: 1-1/4"
The purpose being to enable fast data entry while displaying in the desired format.
Here is where I know to begin for the automatic update:
Code:
Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Application.EnableEvents = False
'
'
'Code
'
'
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub
Display Currency Format With Text Boxes
Jan 25, 2007What I am trying to do is display my output in currency format. The catch is that the values I am using are not from cells, they are from text boxes that are locked on a user form. The first text box is a base rate with a value of "$2000.00". Second comes a quantity text box with an integer value of let's say "3". Last comes a markup rate which is a text box with a rate of ".10". The calculation is fine, it although it returns "$6600" when it is critical that I display the two decimal places at the end. Here is my code for the calculation:
Me.txtAirfare.Text = "$" & frmAirfare.txtBaseRate.Value * frmAirfare.txtQuantity.Value * (1 + frmAirfare.txtMarkup.Value)
