How do change a column of data in capitol letters to small letters

[Guest]

Is there a way to highlight a column of data that is in capitol letters and
change to small letters?

 

[Guest]

use the fuinction =lower(range) to change to lower case.

I'm sorry can you be more explicit? Do I highlight the column? Do I simply
type, =lower(D3200) ????? UGH!

Assuming the column is A

In B1 enter =LOWER(A1)

Double-click on B1 fill handle to copy down.

When happy with results, select column B and copy>paste special(in
place)>values>OK>Esc

Delete column A

Must be done one cell at a time.

See my response to first post.

Or with a macro you can change a range in place without the helper column.

If you would like a macro, post back.
