Default Format Input

Hi,

I have a database that is shared by multi users. Is
there any way that I can format the inputting of data so
that it is uniformed i.e. All words start with an UPPER
CASE and then subsequent characters are lower case.

Field Name [contact] Data Jaye Barry

Any help would be very much appreciated

Regards

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
