Format Address and Name Fields
From the plug-in task bar, you can set options for how to convert the format of address and name fields. Based on the options you set, the plug-in converts the data in forms before they become records in The Education Edge. For example, you prefer to format your name and address fields all in uppercase. Based on this option, the forms data converts all name and address fields to uppercase before they become records. After you set up how to convert your form data, current forms not processed and future forms will convert to the new format.
For name and address fields, if you choose to use Proper Case Capitalization, the first letter of each word capitalizes and the first letter after an apostrophe capitalizes. However, “of,” “the,” “and,” “or,” “a,” “an,” and “von” will always be lower case.
