Default search a string and strip out ONLY the capital letters


Hi fellow Excel users

Does anyone know a way to search a string and strip out ONLY the
capital letters?

So if cell A1 = "First X Name" how do I put "FXN". Into A2. It is
possible that there are various combinations of spaces and no spaces
between letters :-
"FirstXName"
" FirstXName"
"FirstX Name"

It has been suggested using ‘Trim’ but any thoughts would be helpful.

Regards

Andrew
