hello,

I've got an interesting problem. I am searching for a string in a
macro. e.g. animal
but the variable is set as Animal. How can i make sure case sensitivety
is not an issue for a variable.

Regards,
Niek

One way is to use the UCASE function to convert your
searched string to upper case. For example

For x = 1 to 10

If Ucase(cells(x,1).value) = "ANIMAL" Then
... do something exciting ...
End if

Next X

Cheers, Pete
