copy & paste and change format
 
I am copying a large amount of written data from one Excel spreadsheet and
pasting into another. The orginal information is in ALL Caps. I want to
format the pasted information to be in lower case. Help.

Hi,

If your pasted text is in column A, insert in B1

=LOWER(A1) , then drag this down, then copy column B, paste special
values. Then delect column A
