Sort Capitalized Words Ahead Of Lower Case

Oct 11, 2012

I've got a 96000 line spreadsheet with individual words or abbreviations in each cell of the first column. I need to sort it with numbers first, then Capitalized words, then lowercase words. The numbers aren't an issue but sorting the Caps first then lower case without getting words that have a cap in the middle is frying my tiny brain. Originally I dug around here and found a search for caps that returned a True/False then sorted the columns on the result. =MIN(--EXACT(Dict3,LOWER(Dict3)))=0 Then I found that I had abbreviations in the list like cGy and eV or cGMB that incorrectly showed up as true but weren't. Now I need a modification or a better answer. I tried a fw dozen things but obviously I'm barking up the wrong functions.

Lower Case To Upper Case

Jun 20, 2008

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

Upper Case To Lower Case And Lower Case To Upper Case?

Nov 17, 2009

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"

Case "H"
cel.Font.ColorIndex = 0
cel.Interior.ColorIndex = 3

Cell Based On Lower Upper Case

Oct 20, 2009

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.

Change Text To Upper, Lower Or Proper Case On Entry

Sep 6, 2007

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

Only Allow Upper/Lower Case Not All Upper Or All Lower

Oct 8, 2008

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.

Dimming Range Causes Lower Case Range

Jun 27, 2007

Whenever I type " Range", such as in:

Dim myRange As Range

Excel immediately auto-corrects the line as such:

Dim myRange As range

This creates a problem because apparently excel believes "range" is the name of a variable. So when I run the macro, it runs the line and declares the following error:

Run-time error '91': Object variable or With block variable not set

The following is my exact code. The very last line line is where the error occurs.

Dim count As Integer
Dim column As Integer
Dim startRange As String
Dim endRange As String
Dim theRange As String

Sort By No Of Words Macro

Jun 3, 2007

I am look for a macro that can look through a range of cells within a sheet and sorts that range of cells by word count.

I have 1 macro that is excellent which sorts by character count.

If possible, if this macro can be duplicated exactly the same, but to sort by Word count and not character count.

As a note the range of cells are always in a sheet labelled " AllKWs"
Always start from Cell A3 running down.
And the phrases could be anything like "car to rent in london"

As to the macro I have already for character count, it is this kindly written by VOGII

Sub NoOfCharacters()
Dim lastrow As Long, TotP, TotC, AvC
lastrow = Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
If lastrow < 4 Then
MsgBox "Nothing to sort!"
Exit Sub
End If
