RE: Project

Hi Alison

Apologies for the delay in getting back to you. I have been looking high and low for a control to achieve this. Auto correct options (Tools > Auto-correct options) get Project to fix common typos such as double capitals or using the shift key with caps lock left on.

There is a setting switched on by default called Capitalize first letter of sentences. It appears though that Project detects the the need to capitalise by the presence of a preceding full stop which is not very helpful in this case as most task titles are too short to require full stops at all.

I think other than writing a macro to force first letters to be capitalised it's down to the user to achieve this kind of formatting. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

If you have any other questions please do let us know.

Kind regards,
Andrew

Ms project tip:

Use Autofill in MS Project

a. Complete 1st entry
b. Select cell with entry to be copied
c. Click & drag autofill handle over the lines to also contain the same information. (the autofill handle is the little black square in the bottom right hand corner of the heavy lack outline on the selected cell)
