Hi everyone, office work with Excel certainly makes you tired of changing lowercase to uppercase in Excel. It is not possible to fix it manually if the data list is too large. Using a formula to convert is too trivial and also takes time to manipulate. Lucid Gen encountered this situation and found a way to add the change lowercase to uppercase in Excel by shortcut key to make it more convenient to use. Lucid Gen will share with you in this article.

First, you download the file PERSONAL.XLSB of Lucid Gen. We use VBA in Excel to set the keyboard shortcut to change the font. Lucid Gen creates this file after fiddling with the VBA code. So you don’t need to spend time researching it.

You download the file PERSONAL.XLSB and put it in the XLSTART folder according to this path.

C:Users/user-name/AppData/Roaming/Microsoft/Excel/XLSTART

If you can’t find the AppData folder, it’s hidden. You turn it on by clicking VIEW > Options > View > enable Show hidden files, folders, and drivers > Apply and OK.
