Default filtering to separate upper & lower case

Maybe use a helper col ..

Assuming source text in A2 down
In B2, copied down:
=IF(A2="","",IF(AND(CODE(LEFT(A2))=65,CODE(LEFT(A 2))<=90),"Upper",IF(AND(CODE(LEFT(A2))=97,CODE(LE FT(A2))<=122),"Lower","")))
will flag upper/lower as desired, based on the leftmost character. Then just
apply/use autofilter on col B

Success? Hit the YES below

I have a spreadsheet with one column data containing text, only differing by

any suggestions, perhaps another way of doing this ?
