I am trying to generate one formula for cell C2, using the functions SPLIT and PROPER, to produce the first name with proper capitalization in cell C2, and properly capitalized last name into cell D2. I need to have D2 free from formulas
And then needing to combine CellsH2:K2, using functions PROPER and UPPER, to produce the full address in L2, with the states capitalized. I have tried several combinations and none are giving the results I'm after.


=PROPER(SPLIT(A3," ",FALSE,TRUE)) - this is what I'm currently working with in cell C2, which as you can see produces the first name into C2, but not the last name into D2. And of course this formula works to split the names into the cells but is not capitalizing the first/last name - =SPLIT(A2," ")

=PROPER(H2)&" "&PROPER(I2)&","&PROPER(J2)&","UPPER(K2) is giving me formula parse error in cell L2 currently, and the below is producing the desired address however, I can not figure out how to add in proper to get the state capitalized - =H3&" "&I3&", "&J3&", "&K3 (currently in H3)

Excel Facts

Copy formula down without changing references
If you have =SUM(F2:F49) in F50; type Alt+' in F51 to copy =SUM(F2:F49) to F51, leaving the formula in edit mode. Change SUM to COUNT.

Solution
=PROPER(SPLIT(A3," ",FALSE,TRUE))
That looks like a google sheets formula :unsure: - if that is the case, 1. you should probably mention such facts, and 2. you could try : =SPLIT(PROPER(A1)," ",FALSE,TRUE)

to be fair you had the hard work done just forgot the & before UPPER at the end
