Hay, i'm a student, learning Access and need help asap ;). What input mask should I use to turn the first letter into uppercase and the rest lower? S.o. S
The following Input Mask in a Text Box will: - Allow for a Maximum of 25 characters.
- Allows only Alpha Characters, no Numbers, and no special Characters such as: '$', '@', '#', '&', etc.
- Allows Space, Backspace, Delete Key, etc.
- The 1st Character is 'Required'.
- Automatically forces the 1st Character to Upper Case and the remaining 24 Characters, which are optional, to Lower Case.
- Should you need > 25 Characters, simply append '?s' to the Input Mask.
- >L<????????????????????????
- Hope this is what you were looking for.

On the AfterUpdate of the "MyName" control, you need the following code -
Private Sub MyName_AfterUpdate()
-
-
Myname = StrConv(Left(MyName, 1), vbUpperCase) &
-
StrConv(Right(Myname, Len(MyName) - 1), vbLowerCase)
-
-
End Sub
-
So it converts the leftmost letter to Upper case, and the letters that are left to Lower case.
You wil run into problems with a name like "De Vere" though
