How can I capitalize the first letter of the first word of a list?
I would like to capitalize the first letter of the first word of a list.
In this case, the first parameter may or may not be present.
eg Soil description - greyish brown sand vs brown silty sand vs silty sand vs sand, where sand is the primary major conmponent and silty in the secondary major component.
This is sentence case.
If you are defining this in a component format table in Library Data (like DESCRIPTION SOIL LITHOLOGY in the gINT standard library), choose Uppercase 1st character for the row with the data expression that calls the first text into the description, then set the rest of the rows to "Lower case".
If you are bringing a list from a text or memo field into your report, you can use the UCase1st() function:
<<UCase1st(<<Field>>)>>
which returns the <<Field>> text with the first character in upper case and the rest of the text in lower case.
See gINT Help for the topics Setting up Component Structures - component descriptions (how-to guide), Merge Component Description fields (command) and UCase1st (function).
