Formatting Cells
 
Hi there
Does anyone know whether and if so how to format a cell so that text will
covert to CAPITAL even if the entry is done in lower case?

Thanks

Can't be done with formatting. You can do it with an event macro (VBA).
The archives

have lots of examples. For instance:

Hi,
Not in the same column where entries are made.
However, you could have a helper column with the formula,
B2=UPPER(A2), and fill-down the formula in column B.
