Capital letters in a cell

Is there a way to set a cell so that when you enter letters they are always in capital letter form?
 

Excel Facts

Round to nearest half hour?
Use =MROUND(A2,"0:30") to round to nearest half hour. Use =CEILING(A2,"0:30") to round to next half hour.
I don't know.
However, if there isn't a way then you could always just use the =UPPER() formula on the cells after they've been entered.

Hope this helps.

You can use data validation to restrict the entry to upper case. This would not allow the user to enter a value until it was in upper case.

You can also input your own error message that tells them what to do.

You can modify this. Regards, Marc

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)
'Target is an argument which refers to the range being changed
If Target.Column = 3 Then
'this check is to prevent the procedure from repeatedly calling itself
If Not (Target.Text = UCase(Target.Text)) Then
Target = UCase(Target.Text)
End If
End If
End Sub
