    Hi and welcome to the forum

    If you only have the 2 names, use this...
    =UPPER(LEFT(A1,1))&" "&UPPER(MID(A1,FIND(" ",A1,1)+1,1))
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
    3. Click on the star if you think someone helped you
