Converting upper case to lower case
 
I have an Excel file with columns containing for example:
AVILA I am not sure how to change this to Avila
2319 B NORTH OLD HIGHWAY 395 need to change to 2319 B North Old Highway 395

Is there an easy way of doing this? I have over 100 rows with eight columns
I need to change! I hope someone can help me with this. Thank you. Susan

You can use the PROPER function. If your address is in Cell A1, you
would use:

=PROPER(A1)

You can then drag the formula for the 100 rows.

Hi,

With your string in A1

=PROPER(A1)

You can then drag down and repaste the new column over the old

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