Hi,

Try this UDF which extracts the first capital of each word

Function FrstLtrs(MyStr As String) As String
Dim temp
Dim i As Long
TmpStr = Split(Trim(MyStr))
For i = 0 To UBound(TmpStr)
If Asc(Left(TmpStr(i), 1)) = 65 And _
Asc(Left(TmpStr(i), 1)) <= 90 Then
FrstLtrs = FrstLtrs & Left(TmpStr(i), 1)
End If
Next
End Function

When competing hypotheses are otherwise equal, adopt the hypothesis that
introduces the fewest assumptions while still sufficiently answering the
question.

Is there anyway to generate an acronym on cell contents with a function?

Ideally I could ignore certain words e.g. of, the, and, etc. and then for
the first letter of each word generate an acronym e.g.

United States of America = USA
