Hi,
I'm new here, so apologies if I'm posting in the wrong place!
I'm having an issue with my my Excel on my Apple Mac.
When I import information in to excel, it comes in all caps/uppercase.
Is there a way to change it to lowercase without retyping all the information?
Thanks in advanced,
Matt

Welcome to the forum.
You could process it in another column:
=LOWER(A1)

In an adjacent column you can use this formula:
=LOWER(A1)
assuming your data to be in column A, and then copy this formula down. Then you can fix the values and either delete column A or copy/paste the column B values into column A and then delete column B.
Hope this helps.

I tried the formula you've all kindly shared above but no luck. I don't want to post a screenshot, its sensitive information.
I was hoping there would just be a quick button to press, similar to WORD. No worries.
Thank you anyway!
What went wrong when you tried it? You can share a small set of dummy data.
The only way to do it at the push of a button would be to go down the VBA route.
