Default Changing cases to proper

Usually i wouldn't suggest this but i do it myself from time to time, copy
your rows, paste them into word, select them all and select Format-Change
Case-Title Case then copy and paste back into excel.

To do all at once without 7 columns of formulas would require VBA.

See David McRitchie's site for code.

other stuff.
