    VBA for Proper Case


    Good Morning,
    I am trying to create an AfterUpdate event that will change my field "CITY" to proper case.
    I've tried #StrConv([CITY],3)#
    The more I try to fix it, the more confused I get. Can someone help?

    The # shouldn't be part of the code!
    This will convert a string to proper case
    Code:
    ?StrConv("HElLo woRlD",3)
    Hello World
    This query will display a text field T in proper case
    Code:
    SELECT id, T, StrConv([T],3) AS Expr1
    FROM Table1;
    The original data isn't converted with the above. To do so, use an update query

    Code:
    UPDATE Table1 SET T = StrConv([T],3);

    If I don't know that I don't know, I don't know whether to answer
