Trying to find a way to look at 30 worksheets and if sheetname matches column b in navigation sheet I need text in A3 from sheets to be entered in column b in navigation sheet. Any ideas.

How to change case of text in Excel?
Use =UPPER() for upper case, =LOWER() for lower case, and =PROPER() for proper case. PROPER won't capitalize second c in Mccartney

Welcome to the forums!

If I understand correctly, you have the sheet name in column B, and you want to use that sheet name to reference A3 from that sheet?

If so, assuming your sheet names begin in B1, try:

=INDIRECT("'"&B1&"'!A3")
