Hi All,

I'm working with a sub trying to capitalize the first letter of each word in a column:

VBA Code:
Sub CapitalizeFirstWord1()
Dim rng As Range
For Each rng In Range("BA11:BA180")
rng.Value = StrConv(rng.Value, vbProperCase)
Next rng
Exit Sub
End Sub

However, when I apply this sub to its table column it takes to long to execute.

Do you know how I can add to this code, when it finds the lower-case word(s) in cell to then exit the sub in lieu of checking every cell in that column?

Please let me know.

Thank you very much!

Excel Facts

What is the last column in Excel?
Excel columns run from A to Z, AA to AZ, AAA to XFD. The last column is XFD.
Give this a try.

VBA Code:
Sub CapitalizeFirstWord1_Mod()
    Dim rng As Range
    Dim arr As Variant
    
    Set rng = Range("BA11:BA180")
    arr = rng.Value
    arr = Application.Proper(arr)
    rng.Value = arr
End Sub
