Hi Mike,

You need to do a bit of copy and pasting or write a very short VBA
routine.

In a seperate column type "=Upper(Contact Cell)" where Contact Cell is
the address of the first data cell for Contact. This will put the
upper case of the referenced cell into the new cell. Then you can use
fill down to copy the formula to the bottom of the list and over to
the right.

This should give you a second set of data over to the righ of the
first but all in upper case.

Now select all of the upper case data and Copy. Now Paste special /
values only back over the original data. Finally you can delete the
created upper case data 'cause you don't need it any more.

Do you really need *all* of it in upper case though?

HTH
Regards
Lisa
