How can I change the case of selected cells (to lower or upper or whatever) in Excel? Unlike Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel doesn’t have a keyboard shortcut for changing the capitalization, or case of selected text. Fortunately you can use a formula to accomplish such a specific task. This tutorial will walk you through the steps of changing text from lowercase to uppercase in Excel 2016.<\/p>\n

How to Change Text from Lowercase to Uppercase in Excel 2016?<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. First of all, open your Excel spreadsheet. Insert a new column next to the one that contains the text you want to convert text case.\n

    \"\"\n<\/li>\n

  2. Click inside the adjacent cell\u00a0(C2) of the new column and enter the formula “=UPPER(B2)<\/strong>“, replacing B2 with the original cell containing the text that you want to make uppercase.\n

    \"\"<\/p>\n

    If you want to convert the text to lowercase, type =LOWER(B2)<\/strong> instead.\n<\/li>\n

  3. Select the cell that includes the formula you just entered, then move your cursor to the lower-right corner of the cell until you see a small cross. Drag it down to other cells you wish to convert.\n

    \"\"\n<\/li>\n

  4. At this point, the values in the new column (C) should be selected. Right-click to copy them into the Clipboard.\n

    \"\"\n<\/li>\n

  5. Right-click on the first cell in the original column (B). Click on the Values icon under “Paste Options<\/strong>” in the context menu.\n

    \"\"\n<\/li>\n

  6. You can then delete the new column (C), since it is no longer needed.\n

    \"\"\n<\/li>\n

  7. Now you’ve successfully converted the text from lowercase to uppercase in Excel 2016.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
