Does anyone know how to create a macro or some other way to change the appearance of text in a cell?

For example:

Original:

12HGT-T

Changed To:

12hGT-T
 
So would you like:

All capitol H changed to lower-case h?

Any instance of "HGT" changed to "hGT"?

The third character changed from capitol to lower-case?

The case of the third character changed to whatever is isn't originally?

The first text character changed from capitol to lower-case?

The case of the first text character changed to whatever is isn't originally?

Or one of the many many other possible things that could be represented by your example?
 
Other functions to use along with MID are LOWER and REPLACE.
