From: msnyc07 on 27 Dec 2009 13:25 I used the Proper Function in a Column to pull records that were proper titles/names of software from a list, however it did not catch what is known sometime as 'HumpBack Caps' e.g. QuickBooks or ACT! Is there a function that will find these as well?

From: msnyc07 on 27 Dec 2009 16:09 So there is no function that will explicitly refer to Init Caps which to my thinking means any word that starts with a CAP vs the stricter definition of 'Formal Caps'?
