Is there a program that will capitalize a list of words?

[luv$]

Will word or Excel do this?

Or do I have to go out and buy more software for just this one thing...

If it's a list of words and you have them each on an individual line in MSWord you can select auto-format and it will automatically capitalize the first letter in every word on each line.

I must be slow tonight...it took me a second to get that lizard joke.

[luv$]

Actually, that didn't work.

Do they have to be full sentences?

Figured it out - if anyone searches for the same issue in the future, here's the solution:

There's an option in Word called "Change Case"

You'll feel stupid when u find it

Ctrl-A - select all the text..
Ctrl-Shift-U - Uppercase the first letter of all words...

Yeah, I've been using it for years now for everything text related whether its programming in C, php or perl, designing/editing my html pages, editing gallery lists or whatever.. It's awesome stuff..

Downloading now.. thanks for the link

[Ace-wtf]

in dreamweaver they have this format

[SmokeyTheBear]

without doing that you can always do

"match case" replace all

replace "a" with "A"
replace "b" with "B"

and so on , takes some time but easy solution.

I was going to suggest that, but you'd get:

Apple
BeAr
CAtterpillAr

small script is the best otherwise youll get weird stuff like hAt BoOk etc

Just take it a step forward, you could replace "Enter Key a" with "Enter Key A" then only the first letter of each new line would be capped.

Right, but few text editors have multi-lined replace functions

i didnt know he meant just the first letter .. theres a program called notepad2 that works well for that sort of thing.

interesting little script.

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JAVASCRIPT">
<!--

function capitalizeMe(obj) {
        val = obj.value;
        newVal = '';
        val = val.split(' ');
        for(var c=0; c < val.length; c++) {
                newVal += val[c].substring(0,1).toUpperCase() +
val[c].substring(1,val[c].length) + ' ';
        }
        obj.value = newVal;
}

// -->
</SCRIPT>

<FORM NAME="TEST">
        <INPUT TYPE="TEXT" NAME="TESTER" onChange="capitalizeMe(this)">
</FORM>
