The next step, when you have got the names to Initial caps is to set ALL the data format options to "Don't change what I enter".
This keeps the correct case for O’Brien, McKenzie, le Moignan, St Helier, LaPort, Ashby-de-la-Zouch, Barton in the Beans, and Borris-in-Ossory. If you want to show uppercase surnames on the family screen, then in Data Format > 3.4 Displaying Surnames, tick “Show SURNAMES in uppercase lettersâ€. Similarly, in reports go to Report Options > Format > Uppercase SURNAMES.
