The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

URGENT: Function for Propercase

Asked by dwe0608 in Active Server Pages (ASP)

Tags: , ,

The following function is used by me with the contraints described in the header

   '==========================================================
   ' The following function is designed for use in the AfterUpdate
   ' property of form controls.
   ' Features:
   '    - Leading spaces do not affect the function's performance.
   '    - "O'Brian" and "Wilson-Smythe" will be properly capitalized.
   ' Limitations:
   '    - It will change "MacDonald" to "Macdonald."
   '    - It will change "van Buren" to "Van Buren."
   '    - It will change "John Jones III" to "John Jones Iii."
   '==========================================================
   Function Proper (sValue)
      ' check and makure we're not a number and if
      ' we are - then just return the value
      if IsNumeric(sValue) then
            Proper=sValue
            exit function
      end if      
      iPos = 1
      Do While InStr(iPos, sValue, " ", 1) <> 0
            iSpace = InStr(iPos, sValue, " ", 1)
            sTemp = sTemp & UCase(Mid(sValue, iPos, 1))
            sTemp = sTemp & LCase(Mid(sValue, iPos + 1, _
                      iSpace - iPos))
            iPos = iSpace + 1
      Loop

      sTemp = sTemp & UCase(Mid(sValue, iPos, 1))
      sTemp = sTemp & LCase(Mid(sValue, iPos + 1))

      Proper = sTemp

   End Function

What I would like to do, is avoid the pitfalls associated with it - if a surname is MacDonald, then I dont want Macdonald retured as the string.

Can someone either provide or suggest a means by which this can be solved ?

Coded commented answers appreciated.
