Last week, in my Contextures Newsletter, I posted an Excel Name Fix challenge. There was a short list of names, which needed to be fixed. Then we needed to count how many were fixed. Take the challenge yourself – download the workbook to see how you’d solve it.

上周，我在《 Contextures通讯》中发布了一个Excel名称修复挑战。 有一个简短的名称列表，需要固定。 然后，我们需要计算固定的数量。 自己应对挑战–下载工作簿以了解如何解决。

Excel名称修复挑战 (Excel Name Fix Challenge)

Here the challenge that I posted in the newsletter —

这是我在时事通讯中发布的挑战-

If people enter their names in a sign-up form, you might end up with a mixture of upper and lower case letters. You can see an example in the screen shot below.

如果人们以注册表格的形式输入姓名，则您可能会混用大小写字母。 您可以在下面的屏幕截图中看到一个示例。

This week's challenge is to clean up that list. Using Excel formulas, make these changes to the list:

本周的挑战是清理该列表。 使用Excel公式，对列表进行以下更改：

1. Show the corrected name in column B, with only the first letter of each name in upper case. For example, Fred Jones instead of FRED JONES. 在B列中显示更正的名称，并且每个名称的首字母均大写。 例如，弗雷德·琼斯代替弗雷德·琼斯。
2. Add an X in column C, to mark the names that were fixed. 在列C中添加一个X，以标记固定的名​​称。
3. In cell E1, show the number of names that were fixed. 在单元格E1中，显示固定名称的数量。

For inspiration, there are videos and links on my Functions page.

解决问题 (Fixing the Problem)

Several people sent their solutions to me:

有几个人向我发送了他们的解决方案：

• a few said the problem was very easy to solve 一些人说这个问题很容易解决
• others had a bit of trouble, and had to do some research to find a function that would solve the problem. 其他人则遇到了麻烦，必须进行一些研究才能找到可以解决问题的功能。
• a couple knew the simple ways to fix the problem, and looked for different formula solutions 一对夫妇知道解决问题的简单方法，并寻找不同的公式解决方案

There were a couple of unexpected twists too:

也有一些意外的变化：

• one person noticed an extra space in a name, and wanted to fix that too 一个人注意到名称中有多余的空格，也想解决这个问题
• another person asked if there was a way to show the number of changes in each name 另一个人问是否有办法显示每个名称的更改数量

I compiled the solutions into the Excel Name Fix Solutions workbook.
