Is there a way to set a formula so all text in the column or sheet is upper case even if someone enters it on a form in lower or title case?
Hello,
If you are looking to convert user entries to uppercase in the existing cell, there isn't a way to do this.
The UPPER() function can convert text from one cell to all uppercase. https://help.smartsheet.com/function/upper.

Hi @SaulB
I hope you're well and safe!
Unfortunately, it's not possible to add formulas with the change cell action, but it's an excellent idea!
Please submit an Enhancement Request when you have a moment.

Would that work/help?
I hope that helps!
Be safe and have a fantastic weekend!
Best,

You can use this to enforce rules on your data without needing to use a helper column, even if the data comes from a form.
Hope this helps!

The sheet I'm working on is our RAID log template that we have built into our control center solution. We…

Hello, I am struggling to identify a formula that can read multiple selections in a drop down column, find the corresponding selections and prices on another sheet, and return a total cost. The sheet supports samples that are analytically tested. The user chooses which tests they want to conduct for each sample on the…
