| | I needed to Proper Case All words from a Name field used in our EDI processing. The name(s) could not contain consecutive capitals or spaces. I found this code http://www.planetsourcecode.com/vb/scripts/ShowCode.asp?txtCodeId=300&lngWId;=5 here but it just made sure the first letter of each word was capitalized. This UDF will capitalize the first letter of each word and force all other letters to lower case. It will also remove any consecutive spaces and make them 1 space between words.
Thanks to Narayana Vyas Kondreddi (above code) for the start. | |

that. Our processing does not deal
with Middle Initials but that is a good
point.
