Default Any plugins or methods on spreadsheet?

I have a spreadsheet file with over 5,000 names, some are all in capital letters and some are spelt fine.

My question is, is there a plugin or a method of making all the names have a capital letter at the beginning and normal letters after?

I dont want to edit 5,000 names, it will take me forever...

Thank you!

Copy the text into an blank html doc, use the converter and then paste it back into the spreadsheet

Tried it, wont work...

I also have other fields which need to be changed like address etc...

There HAS to be a spreadsheet plugin for this, lots of people must have run into this problem.

Try Ctrl+A then Shift+F3. It works in Word to toggle caps styles, try Excel.

EDIT: Search "caps" in Excel's help. First item.

Ok thanks for your help, I've found a formula in Excel called PROPER and it makes the start uppercase and the rest lowercase.

I just need to figure out how to do it....anyone?
