Tharwat's code will only change the first character. Edited January 12 by ronjonp 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, you are right, but my text strings isn't a sentence, if you look at my examples, they are only one word. Edited January 12 by amir0914 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
