I need to create twitter accounts for my company but cannot finalize my formula.
My formula is:
="@"&LEFT([Lastname],3)&LEFT([@Firstname],1)&"CG"
which is giving me @BerCCG. This example is for Carla Bere..."Ber"-being the 3 first letters of last name "C"-initial of first name "CG" represents the company.
The only problem with above is they want everything in lowercase except for CG.
I know LOWER is the lower case function but I am having troubles nesting it in my function.
 

Excel Facts

Links? Where??
If Excel says you have links but you can't find them, go to Formulas, Name Manager. Look for old links to dead workbooks & delete.
Try:
Code:
="@"&LOWER(LEFT([Lastname],3)&LEFT([@Firstname],1))&"CG"
