    Use UCase(), LCase(), StrConv() functions.

    Do you want to actually change the saved data? Run UPDATE action.

    Don't advise all one case for naming convention - harder to read. Also advise no spaces nor punctuation/special characters (underscore only exception).

    When we open a report in Layout View the conditional formatting doesn't work even after selecting a value in the Report. What is the reason and how to solve it?

    Layout view is only intended for fine-tuning the layout. Use print preview
