    ALL CAPS to Regular Text except if containing the word "SUPERVALU"

    Hi,
    How do I take a column with a bunch of names in it and some are typed with ALL CAPS and some are regular text and make it all regular text unless it contains the word "SUPERVALU"? Because SUPERVALU should be ALL CAPS.

    Any ideas?

    =IF(A1="SUPERVALU",UPPER(A1),LOWER(A1))

    It makes the whole cell lower case instead of "proper case" Most of the column are names, some are the name of an organization and if it's "SUPERVALU" it should stay all caps, but that's the only exception. I'd like the rest of the column if it's not SUPERVALU to be "proper case"... : ) Thanks for your help!!

    Thanks AlKey! It worked great, however, there are several "acronyms" on the list I wasn't aware of until checking the column. Any way to catch those with the formula? Some Acronym examples are "IGA", "IBC", "DC", "JBG"...

    Without going through the entire column - those were some examples...

    Here is another way for lookup of multiple values

    if you have more words to search you can create a table in one column and replace this part {"SUPERVALU","IGA","IBC","DC","JBG"} with a range.
