What would you do with Proper Nouns/Names?

I would guess, most fragments that are causing problems would be ones that
have the First char of the First word capitalized before Concat?

Make sure all fragments First chars are not capitalized before concat then
on the Final string, Capitalize the First char?

Subject: [DOTNET] Correcting The Case Of Strings


Does anyone know of a good approach (or code snippet even) to correct the
grammatical case of a string.
The strings have been concatenated from several sources and are in a mess.

However, I'll need it to ignore acronyms

such that     "the pointy headed Boss has Just come out with Yet Another
TLA"
becomes     "The pointy headed boss has just come out with yet another TLA"

and             "the pointy headed Boss has Just come out with Yet Another
T.L.A."
becomes     "The pointy headed boss has just come out with yet another
T.L.A."


I'm guessing I'll need a RegExp (in which case how do get it to leave
acronyms alone).



Best wishes
