Sub Selection_proper()
Range("a1").Select
Selection.Value = Proper
End Sub

I have this code which doesn't work instead it deletes the contant in a1.

I want the value of a1 to be Proper when i run the macro.

THanks!!
 

Excel Facts

Return population for a City
If you have a list of cities in A2:A100, use Data, Geography. Then =A2.Population and copy down.
Like names..

Suppose I write in cell a1, PETER, when i run the macro i want it to look like

Peter

pedie,


Try:


Code:
Sub Selection_proper()

Range("A1").Value = WorksheetFunction.Proper(Range("A1"))

End Sub

Probably because VB thinks 'proper' is a variable in this context and since it hasn't been defined, it will return the default value of null. This results in your data being deleted.

Code:
With selection
.value=worksheetfunction.proper(.value)
end with
Ought to work
