Force Text to Upper Case or Proper Case. See Also Change Text to Upper/Proper Case

We can use Excel VBA code in the Private Module of the Worksheet Object to force any text entered to be UPPER case, or Proper case. To use either of the first 4 Excel VBA procedures below, right click on the Worksheet name tab, select View Code and in here paste one and one only of the 4 procedures directly below. Note that 2 of the procedures restricts the forcing of upper/proper case to a specified range on the Worksheet. The other 2 similar procedures will do the same but for the entire Worksheet.

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
'Forces text to UPPER case for the range A1:B20
''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Or Target.HasFormula Then Exit Sub

    On Error Resume Next
    If Not Intersect(Target, Range("A1:B20")) Is Nothing Then
    	Application.EnableEvents = False
        Target = UCase(Target)
        Application.EnableEvents = True
    End If
    On Error GoTo 0

End Sub

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
'Forces all text to UPPER case
''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Or Target.HasFormula Then Exit Sub

    On Error Resume Next
    	Application.EnableEvents = False
        Target = UCase(Target)
        Application.EnableEvents = True
    On Error GoTo 0
    
End Sub

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
'Forces text to Proper case for the range A1:B20
''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Or Target.HasFormula Then Exit Sub

    On Error Resume Next
    If Not Intersect(Target, Range("A1:B20")) Is Nothing Then
    	Application.EnableEvents = False
        Target = StrConv(Target, vbProperCase)
        Application.EnableEvents = True
    End If
    On Error GoTo 0
    
End Sub

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
'Forces all text to Proper case
''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Or Target.HasFormula Then Exit Sub

    On Error Resume Next
    	Application.EnableEvents = False
        Target = StrConv(Target, vbProperCase)
        Application.EnableEvents = True
    On Error GoTo 0
    
End Sub
