I see that Rod Hall has already sent you one solution.
However there is another one.
Go to Customize>DataFormat from the Options Menu Bar
Menu. You will see there are a couple of items that say to
capitalize the first letter in a place name or Surname. Change
these to "Don't change what I enter", and re-import the file from
FTM. IMO this will give you a better import. I honestly don't
know why Legacy is set up to change people's data by default.
