In your afterupdate event, assumes name of field is testfield, you could
enter
Me.testfield = strConv(testfield,vbProperCase)

However, I would set a flag on this. At the top of the code module,
under Option Explicit, enter something like
Dim blnProper As Boolean

Now in the OnCurrent event of the form, enter
Dim blnProper = False

In the afterupdate event of the field, enter
If not blnProper then
Me.testfield = strConv(testfield,vbProperCase)
blnProper = True
Endif

Thus, when you enter the record, the flag is set to false. If false,
and the field gets changed, it will propercase the field. However, the
person can overwrite the propercasing is so desired after the first
propercasing.
