Thread: Changing from lower case to upper case in microsoft.public.excel.misc

Started 4 weeks, 1 day ago by Hok Wong
If I have an excel document where most of the text within the cells have been written in lowercase, is there an easy way to change all the text into uppercase? I thought i'd seen an option for that years ago, but typically, now i want to use it, i can't find it.
