Field Formatting (Eric Butts)

J

Jaye

Hi Eric,

Mant thanks for that tip. However I have more than one
word in the field ie An address field could have
something like New Gate Street in which case I need to
force the first letter of each new word within the field
to be uppercase. Is this possible?

Regards

Jaye

Check VBA HELP on "StrConv", using vbProperCase.

Caution: McDonald, OBrien and vanDamme are also affected by use of Proper
Case, and become Mcdonald, Obrien and Vandamme.

Consider checking the mvps.org website for a parsing routine.
