Default Chg existing cells fr Proper to Upper w/o re-typing.

I have several workbooks that have several worksheets that need a particular
group of cells to be in Upper Case. These cells are currently occupied with
proper case words. Can I change them to Upper case without having to retype
all the information in these cells? If so, how?

in a parallel range, enter =UPPER(A1) (or wherever the data is) & fill down'
Copy the result, paste/special values onto the original; remove the
formulas.

You can use the UPPER function.

=UPPER(A1) where your text is in A1. Copy down as needed.
