I'm having a problem setting a Range.Value on a worksheet that has a Filter.

Here's an example worksheet (Sorry about the wonky spacing. I tried my best!)

<font size="2">Worksheet: Sheet1 UsedRange: $A$1:$B$7 Range: $A$1:$B$7</font><table border="1" cellspacing="2" cellpadding="3">
<tr>
<td width="40px" align="center" valign="top" style="background-color:#eeeeee;">

<td width="100px" align="center" valign="top" style="background-color:#eeeeee;">
<font size="2">A</font>
</td>
<td width="100px" align="center" valign="top" style="background-color:#eeeeee;">
<font size="2">B</font>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="40px" style="background-color:#eeeeee;">

Here is the worksheet filtered by TYPE = 3

<table border="1" cellspacing="2" cellpadding="3">
<tr>
<td width="40px" align="center" valign="top" style="background-color:#eeeeee;">
<font size="2"> </font>
</td>
<td width="100px" align="center" valign="top" style="background-color:#eeeeee;">
<font size="2">A</font>

<td width="100px" align="center" valign="top" style="background-color:#eeeeee;">
<font size="2">B</font>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="40px" style="background-color:#eeeeee;">
<font size="2">1</font>
</td>
<td width="100px" style="background-color:#ffffff;">
<a name="cA1_705"></a><font size="2">TYPE</font>
</td>
<td width="100px" style="background-color:#ffffff;">
<a name="cB1_705"></a><font size="2">VALUE</font>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="40px" style="background-color:#eeeeee;">
<font size="2">6</font>
</td>
<td width="100px" style="background-color:#ffffff;">
<a name="cA6_705"></a><font size="2">3</font>
</td>
<td width="100px" style="background-color:#ffffff;">
<a name="cB6_705"></a><font size="2">e</font>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="40px" style="background-color:#eeeeee;">
<font size="2">7</font>
</td>
<td width="100px" style="background-color:#ffffff;">
<a name="cA7_705"></a><font size="2">3</font>
</td>
<td width="100px" style="background-color:#ffffff;">
<a name="cB7_705"></a><font size="2">f</font>
</td>
</tr>
</table><p />

If I run this macro with the filter applied I get unexpected results.

This code simply forces the text in the cells in column B to upper case.

Code: 
Sub Test()

Dim oRange As Excel.Range
Set oRange = Application.Range("B2:B7")

Dim Cells
Cells = oRange.Value

Dim nRows
nRows = oRange.Rows.Count

Dim r
For r = 1 To nRows
    Cells(r, 1) = UCase(Cells(r, 1))
Next r

oRange.Value = Cells

End Sub

I end up with the following sheet (auto filter is still on). I would have expected to see E and F instead of A and B:

<table border="1" cellspacing="2" cellpadding="3">
<tr>
<td width="40px" align="center" valign="top" style="background-color:#eeeeee;">
<font size="2"> </font>
</td>
<td width="100px" align="center" valign="top" style="background-color:#eeeeee;">
<font size="2">A</font>
</td>
<td width="100px" align="center" valign="top" style="background-color:#eeeeee;">
<font size="2">B</font>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="40px" style="background-color:#eeeeee;">
<font size="2">1</font>
</td>
<td width="100px" style="background-color:#ffffff;">
<a name="cA1_705"></a><font size="2">TYPE</font>
</td>
<td width="100px" style="background-color:#ffffff;">
<a name="cB1_705"></a><font size="2">VALUE</font>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="40px" style="background-color:#eeeeee;">
<font size="2">6</font>
</td>
<td width="100px" style="background-color:#ffffff;">
<a name="cA6_705"></a><font size="2">3</font>
</td>
<td width="100px" style="background-color:#ffffff;">
<a name="cB6_705"></a><font size="2">A</font>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="40px" style="background-color:#eeeeee;">
<font size="2">7</font>
</td>
<td width="100px" style="background-color:#ffffff;">
<a name="cA7_705"></a><font size="2">3</font>
</td>
<td width="100px" style="background-color:#ffffff;">
<a name="cB7_705"></a><font size="2">B</font>
</td>
</tr>
</table><p />

Here is the resulting sheet with autofilter off:

Could anyone tell me how to get this to work (I would like all of the underlying cells to be upper cased) with the filter so I end up with the following:

<table border="1" cellspacing="2" cellpadding="3">
<tr>
<td width="40px" align="center" valign="top" style="background-color:#eeeeee;">
<font size="2"> </font>

<font size="2">A</font>
</td>
<td width="100px" align="center" valign="top" style="background-color:#eeeeee;">
<font size="2">B</font>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="40px" style="background-color:#eeeeee;">
<font size="2">1</font>
</td>
<td width="100px" style="background-color:#ffffff;">
<a name="cA1_705"></a><font size="2">TYPE</font>
</td>
<td width="100px" style="background-color:#ffffff;">
<a name="cB1_705"></a><font size="2">VALUE</font>
</td>

I'm not quite sure what you are after. Maybe

Code: 
Sub test()
Dim LR As Long, c As Range
LR = Cells.Find(What:="*", SearchDirection:=xlPrevious, SearchOrder:=xlByRows).Row
For Each c In Range("B2:B" & LR).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible)
    c.Value = UCase(c.Value)
Next c
End Sub

Thanks. I was hoping to make the existing code work (I have a bunch of different routines to update) without making too many changes.

I was just puzzled by the fact that doing a Cells = Range.Value returns the same cell values independent of having a filter applied to the worksheet but when you do a Range.Value = Cells, it behaves differently if there is a filter enabled.
