Is there a way to make the cell that you have selected become highlighted while its selected? like yellow or red?

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
Hi there,

I dont' think you can do this with CF easily, but you can with code, assuming there is no other code in that worksheet module and you do not have any other colors you want to mess with.

Right click your worksheet tab and select View Code, paste this on the right...

Code:
Option Explicit

Private rngPrevious As Range

Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
    If Not rngPrevious Is Nothing Then rngPrevious.Interior.ColorIndex = xlNone
    Target.Interior.ColorIndex = 3
    Set rngPrevious = Target
End Sub
