Hi,

I have several cells in a worksheet that I would like to have automatically change to uppercase once information is entered in the cells.

I've tried the below, but it isn't working for me:

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)

If Not Intersect(Target, Range("B4,G3,F7:H15,F23,C27,E27,F46:G50,G74:I79,C91,E95")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
Application.EnableEvents = False
Target.Value = UCase(Target.Value)
Application.EnableEvents = True

End Sub


I'd be grateful for any other suggestions as to code I could try.

Thanks,
 

Excel Facts

Which lookup functions find a value equal or greater than the lookup value?
MATCH uses -1 to find larger value (lookup table must be sorted ZA). XLOOKUP uses 1 to find values greater and does not need to be sorted.
Using your code, if I enter text in cell B3, it is changed to upper case. If I enter text in cell B4, the case is not changed.

What do you mean by "isn't working"?

It doesn't change text in the defined range to uppercase

The one below works, but I have to manually run it. It doesn't do it automatically as I come out of the cell. Also it's running the loop for a while.

Ideally, I'd like for the text in the cell to change as soon as I exit the cell and without having to create a macro button for it.

Sub Uppercase()
' Loop to cycle through each cell in the specified range.
For Each x In Range("B4, G3, F7:H15, F23, C27, E27, F46:G50, G74:I79, C91, E95")
' Change the text in the range to uppercase letters.
x.Value = UCase(x.Value)
Next
End Sub

It doesn't change text in the defined range to uppercase

That's because the code is written to exclude the defined range. That is, it will change B3, but not B4. If you mean for the range to be inclusive, then change to something like this:
VBA Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
    Dim MyRange As Range, R As Range

    Set MyRange = Intersect(Target, Me.Range("B4,G3,F7:H15,F23,C27,E27,F46:G50,G74:I79,C91,E95"))
    If Not MyRange Is Nothing Then
        Application.EnableEvents = False
        For Each R In MyRange
            R.Value = UCase(R.Value)
        Next R
        Application.EnableEvents = True
    End If
End Sub
