Bernie,

Thanks as well, but when I tried your formula, I got an Error Message saying
I had created a circular formula. I apologize for not understanding this,
but I am very new at excel and the formulas. Thanks again for your help.

pfbear,

Insert a new blank worksheet, and in cell A1, use a formula like

=UPPER(Sheet1!A1)

and then copy to enough cells to capture all of the data from sheet1.

If the furst sheet doesn't ahve any formulas, you can then select all the cells on your new sheet,
do a copy / pastespecial values, and delete the first sheet.

HTH,

Paul-

Thanks, but you are way beyond me. Is it possible to dumb it down a little
for an excel newbie?

pfbear, here is one way, select your range and run this

Sub CAPS()
'select range and run this to change to all CAPS
Dim cel As Range
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
For Each cel In Intersect(Selection, _
ActiveSheet.UsedRange)
cel.Formula = UCase$(cel.Formula)
Next
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

I am modifying a very large spreadsheet and need all the text cells
capitalized. Short of re-typing all the information, is there a way to
capitalize the entire document at one time?
