conversions to proper case

  • I have a database that contains a description field that happens to be in all caps ... I need to convert that to proper case. What is the easiest solution for this?

  • There are any number of ways to do this but you would basically be using LOWER() for the field in all but the first character - and if you have phrases, sentences etc.. then the manipulation would probably need you to loop through the field looking for spaces etc.....

  • Shouldn't this be done client side (I know that VB has a vbProper function that would handle it)?

  • Take a look at this thread for some ideas:
