How to change case of text in Excel?
Use =UPPER() for upper case, =LOWER() for lower case, and =PROPER() for proper case. PROPER won't capitalize second c in Mccartney
Yes, its not working, the problem at present is when i select two or more cells to check the total, it shows count only.

If you copied the data from the Web, then maybe
=TRIM(SUBSTITUTE(A1,CHAR(160),""))

From the data you've posted it doesn't look like you have problems with spaces.
In a blank cell put
=B2*1
What is returned?

This formula works, but i cannot get total at the bottom only count, even though the sum option is selected.
