I have a bunch of cells, say A1 thru A50,

each of which is occupied by a text string, such as...

New York or
chicago or
abc or
Abc

etc, etc,etc.

HOW CAN I TEST EACH CELL FOR...WHETHER OR NOT THE STRING BEGINS WITH A
CAPITAL LETTER?????

In other words, chicago will yield..."no"

and, Chicago will yield..."yes".

Please advise,
