Hi Statalist,
Is there a way to change observations of a string variable into words
with first letter uppercase and the remaining letters lower case.?
Example; if I have the following observations in my string Var1 can I
transform it to Var2 as given below.
Var1
------
world bank
world health organization
asian development bank
..........
var2
---------
World Bank
World Health Organization
Asian Development Bank
...........
Some of the observations in in my var1 also has hyphens in it. (eg:
world-bank) I want that to be changed to World Bank too.
Thanks in advance.
Rijo.
