Make sure first letter is uppercase

[Middletree]

I want to take a value that users type into a field (actually 2
fields--first and last name) and convert the first letter to Upper Case. I
htought I could use UCase, but it seems to only work for an entire string.
Anyone got a suggestion?

t = request.form("myField")
t = ucase(left(t,1)) & mid(t,2)

And Microsoft forums are not Usenet.

I hate quoting because I am a staunch believer in top-posting, and when I
quote, I get "corrected" by those who hate top-posting. They always remind
me that top-posting is against the rules of etiquitte. In fact, most people
I know prefer to read a top-posted message, but because we weren't around
newsgroups in 1989 when those rules were formulated, we don't get any say.

But I bottom-posted here for you because I really appreciate your help. I
had never heard of "mid" before. Thanks.

Any NG that is on usenet is part of usenet.
