How about selecting Title Case in Text Format box for that field in Layout mode? That will make first character of every word in that field Upper Case.

I have VB, Oracle and Progress background in programming that was 7 years ago. This is my first project on FMPro. I am accepting a Name (Text field) on the form and I would like it to be stored in the database with first character in uppercase. I am aware of the Text functions to extract the first character and then use UPPER to convert it to Upper case, and then concatenate with the rest of the characters in the name field. How am I going to trigger this script as there is no way of triggering a script after exiting a field? I don't want to use Buttons to run a script. Thanks for your help in advance.
