case
 

is it possible to check the case of a letter. All the functions i found in
help seem to be able to convert text to a particular case but not check the
case

case
 

dim myString as string

myString = "a"
if ucase(mySting) = mystring then
msgbox "UpperCase"
else
msgbox "LowerCase"
endif

You can use =exact()

=exact(a1,upper(a1))

maybe????

case
 

And VBA also has a StrComp function.

You could use that to test for exact matches, too.

here's a less elegant way than the others, but just as an example


Sub test()
Debug.Print Asc(Range("A1").Value)
If Asc(Range("A1").Value) <= 90 And Asc(Range("A1").Value) = 65 Then
Range("B1").Value = "UPPER CASE"
End If
If Asc(Range("A1").Value) = 97 And Asc(Range("A1").Value) <= 122 Then
Range("B1").Value = "lower case"
End If
End Sub

Hi Phil,
To add to the other info here;

If data to be checked is in A6

'=IF(EXACT(A6,UPPER(A6)),"Upper Case",IF(EXACT(A6,LOWER(A6)),"Lower
Case","Upper and Lower Case"))
