However, you are not really going to be able to manage proper capitalization of all names, since you can have McDonald and MacDougal, and no good way to manage it.John Peacock ____________________Reply Separator____________________ Subject: Capitalize command Author: (WebCatalog Talk) Date: 4/20/2000 10:36 AMI'm using the capitalize command around client's names. My problem is that some last names have 2 capital letters in them like McBourney. When I capitalize it -- Mcbourney. O' names work fine.
