If you want to achieve this without changing your settings, just enter the 
surname as o'brian.  Legacy will change it to O'brian when you go yo the next 
box in that screen.  Then go back to the surname box in edit mode.  Place the 
cursor at the b, delete it and put in a B.  You will then have O'Brian.

You will be left with both O'Brian and O'brian in your master list of surnames. 
 A 'Purge Unused' in Options will get rid of the O'brian as long as no others 
have been entered with O'brien.  In that event, a Show list in Options will 
show you what ones need correcting.

Hope that helps

  Subject: [LegacyUG] Proper Surname Capitalization?



  A number of names in my file have apostrophes - like O'Brian.  How do I get 
Legacy to capitalize the letter after the apostrophe?

  Thanks!
