When I use a simple formula such as:
=upper(a1)
that will obviously change whatever is in a1 to Upper Case - but it will put it in the cell that holds the formula.
What I want to know is:
Is there any way I can format the cell to run the formula when the information has been pasted into the spreadsheet
I have a string of names that run together without spaces or commas between each name.
"Danny TrejoJean Claude van DammeVincent SchiavelliGabrielle FitzpatrickDavid 'Shark' FralickPat Morita" for example.
Is there a way to add a comma and space between a lower case and upper case letter?
if there's any way for vba to detect if each individual character in a string is in caps, and if so, convert to lower case, and if it's in lower case, convert to capitalized
The text will vary in length and content... so he wants to see how we can change:
"This Is Strange" to "tHIS iS sTRANGE"
"THIS IS STRANGE" to "this is strange"
"this is strange" to "THIS IS STRANGE"
I have this code (this is just a snippet)
For Each cel In Range("E6:AI15").Cells
If IsError(cel.Value) Then
Else
Select Case UCase(cel.Value)
Case "H"
cel.Font.ColorIndex = 0
cel.Interior.ColorIndex = 3
Case "S"
cel.Font.ColorIndex = 0
cel.Interior.ColorIndex = 10
but I want the cells to accept both upper and lower case values and format the cells accordingly ie. H or h, S or s
=upper("venkat") returns VENKAT
=upper(a1) returns the text in A1 in upper case
similary lower
proper will turn the first letter into uppercase
is this what you want;.

of using a function for this purpose.
find the "add in" that converts the case text
from lower to upper in excel. i've already downloaded this before but can't
remember where from and it is much easier than creating a formula or a macro
I have data in cell A1 as below:
36, TREE ROAD, 5TH FLOOR
I want it in proper format in cell A2 as below:
36, Tree Road, 5th Floor
I used formula =Proper(A1), it gave results as:
36, Tree Road, 5Th Floor
The only problem I face is after any number, the next character should in lowercase, i.e. 5th
I have a workbook on which I want to change all the text from Lower to Upper case.
How can I do this without retyping .
I've got a column of data that I need to split into further columns, the only way of identifying the split from the data is if a lower case character appears next to an upper case character.
For example, a cell in column A could look like;
Computer ProductsDrivesDVDExternal
And I'd need to split that out to cover columns A B and C with
Computer Products / Drives / DVDExternal
I'd need to do that for all the cells in column A.
I am using the Find fuction to look for values in cells that contain text in both lower and upper case. I am comparing the values that I have stored in a lookup table. I am running into trouble when the lookup table doesn't match the text cells....

I would like to format a row of cells so that when a word is entered into the cell it automatically becomes a capital.
I need the word to be capitalized so that I can use it in a custom function. The function uses the word from this cell and goes through a bunch of cases in determing how to classify the string.
I think more than one solution is possible and I would greatly appreciate some feed back, I've tried looking into turning all the letters of a string in my VBA code to capitals, or a way to format the cells, so that the string is already capitalized when entered into the VBA code, but I'm still a novice at VBA and unsure on how certain commands work.
here is a sample of my vba code.
Function WeightI(Shape As String, sDim As String, dLenFt As Double) As Double
Const pi As Double = 3.14159265358979
Const Ft2In As Double = 12
Const dDen As Double = 0.2835 ' density of steel, pounds per cubic inch
Dim aiStr() As String ' dimensions as strings
I am trying to detete rows that have several specific values, upper and lower case, (A-H) in any of several columns (B through H). I can delete upper and lower case "D"s in column B, but I'm having difficulty stringing together several variations and getting at the "D"s that are midstream (such as: ADeC), I tried ("*D*") to no avail.
With . Cells(Lrow, "B")
If Not IsError(.Value) Then
'****
If LCase(.Value) = LCase("D") Then .EntireRow.Delete
Is there a data validation that will not allow all upper case or all lower case characters?
For examples:
Allow:
John Doe
101A N Woodbine Street
Disallow:
JOHN DOE
101A N WOODBINE STREET
Disallow:
john doe
101a n woodbine street
Or perhaps formatting that would convert the words to upper/lower case?
Or, I would be interested in VBA if it is the only way.
In column J of my Excel 2003 worksheet named: Sheet1, is a list of mailing addresses. A copy of the spreadsheet is attached. I need a macro to please capitalise (Upper-case) the second character only of all the Post Office addresses.
Example:
Po Box 65, ORLANDO, NSW 2697
All of my Post Office addresses are prefixed: Po
I need the Post Office addresses to be prefixed: PO
So, the above mentioned example should look like this: PO Box 65, ORLANDO, NSW 2697
How can i use UPPER case formula in a list ?
i have a on sheet4 at A1, source of data is sheet2 from A3:A5000. some entries in lower case, i want in list (A1) all entries UPPER case.
I have a usferform where I want the result from textbox1 displayed in the cell as all caps.
here is what I tried but not effective.
If UserForm7.CheckBox5 = True Then Range("A23") = UserForm7.UCase(TextBox1.Value) & " SPECIAL EVENT RENTAL"
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?

I am trying to get certain cells to only have upper case letters.

I would rather have it as an event code (change while it is typed), but I have not grasped the whole thing yet.
This code does not give me any errors, but it is not changing the lower case letters into upper case letters either.

While using the userform, for example "name" is entered in the form.
My requirement is the values should reflect as uppercase letters like "NAME"
I am trying to change string values of a name from uppercase to lowercase. The data is layed out as lastname then first name. As an example, I have the following values in column C:
ANDERSON MICHAEL
SMITH SUSAN P
JOHNSON PATRICK
JORDAN MICHAEL R
WOODS TIGER
CLINTON WILLIAM J
I am trying to convert to following (with "," between lastname & firstname):
Anderson, Michael
Smith, Susan P
Johnson, Patrick
Jordan, Michael R
Woods, Tiger
Clinton, William J
I have a start of how I think the code should flow but can't figure out how to do the conversion.
I have a file with about 30-40 macros in it. In a file with nothing in it, whenever I type the word " range" xl automatically changes it to title case. But I noticed recently everywhere the term 'range' occurs in my macros it is lower case.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI would like a user to be able to enter text into a cell in any case and have it be displayed in all capital letters (or as a "Proper" capitalization). Seems strange that >FORMAT doesn't seem to have a "case" selection.
Past threads show VB code to do this, but I don't want the user to have to click a button to change case. Could the VB code run automatically after the user hits >enter, or tab, or an ->? Is there a way to >FORMAT a cell to do this change? I know the "Upper" & "Proper" functions but it would be very clumsy to have the user enter data in cell A1 just to be displayed in capitals in cell A2.
Example: When user types "lax" in cell A1, I would like "LAX" to be displayed in cell A1.
