Macro for Proper function

S

Can someone help me write a macro that I could run on spreadsheets that I
need to be sure are in Title Case? I can't figure out how to make the formula
to correct the cell with the information in it.
Thanks!

Thanks. I copied your macro into the source for the sheet I was working on
but I'm not really sure what to change.
Here's an example of a sheet I am working on:
Sheet name is Financials. (This is sheet 3).
I want to check column A.
What do I put where?

Once I get this figured out (with help!) I'd like to be able to save the
macro to use on other spreadsheets.

You have asked for a macro which Rick has provided...If you are new to macros
launch VBE using Alt+F11. Insert a module. Paste the macro. Modify the
sheetname variable, Range (Rick has referred to column D) to suit your
requirements...Save and get back to workbook. Try running the macro from
Tools|Macro ....and see.


You can also use the worksheet function PROPER(). Try this with A1 = "this
is a test"

=PROPER(A1)

Warning

If there are formulas in the range they will be values after you run the macro
Maybe no problem in your case but it is better to use this :

Select the range first before you run ot

Sub Propercase_macro()
Dim selectie As Range
Dim cel As Range
On Error Resume Next
Set selectie = Range(ActiveCell.Address & "," & Selection.Address) _
.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeConstants, xlTextValues)
If selectie Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
For Each cel In selectie
cel.Value = StrConv(cel.Value, vbProperCase)
Next cel
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationAutomatic
End Sub
