    Counting upper and lower case cell entries (Excel 2003)

    Is it possible to count the number of upper and lowercase cell entries? See attached spreadsheet for example.

    Re: Counting upper and lower case cell entries (Excel 2003)

    The following formulas are array formulas, i.e. they must be confirmed with Ctrl+Shift+Enter:

    =SUM(1*EXACT(A1:A12,LOWER(A1:A12)))

    =SUM(1*EXACT(A1:A12,UPPER(A1:A12)))

    EXACT compares two strings, case-sensitive. The result is TRUE or FALSE. Multiplying by 1 forces this to be interpreted as numbers 1 and 0.
