I'm surprised that what you tried didn't work because it does work for me - maybe a difference in versions.<br />
<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp;replace(propercase(&quot;Joe's Diner&quot;),&quot;'S&quot;,&quot;'s&quot;)<br />
<br />
The above returns &quot;Joe's Diner&quot; exactly as you'd want. &nbsp;You might want to try forcing the lower case conversion like this:<br />
<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp;replace(propercase({Compan<wbr />yName}),&quot;'<wbr />S&quot;,lcase(&quot;<wbr />'s&quot;))<br />
<br />

   replace(propercase("Joe's Diner"),"'S","'s")

The above returns "Joe's Diner" exactly as you'd want.  You might want to try forcing the lower case conversion like this:

   replace(propercase({CompanyName}),"'S",lcase("'s"))

When using Propercase on a company's name I get false output if there is an apostrophy in the string. &nbsp;Example: &nbsp;From Propercase({CompanyName}) &nbsp;on &quot;JEFF'S FIRM&quot; I get: &nbsp;&quot;Jeff'S Firm&quot; instead of the assumed correct output: &quot;Jeff's Firm&quot; &nbsp; Can anybody help with a workaround on this solution? &nbsp;I tried Replace(Propercase([Compan<wbr />yName]), &quot;'S&quot;,&quot;'s&quot;), however, it didn't work. &nbsp;Any ideas?

Propercase can't handle apostrophys

Crystal Reports is a business intelligence application from SAP SE. It is used to graphically design data connections and report layouts from a wide range of data sources including Excel spreadsheets, Oracle, SQL Server databases and Access databases, BusinessObjects Enterprise business views, and local file-system information. Report designers can place fields from these sources on the report design surface, and can also deploy them in custom formulas (using either BASIC or Crystal's own syntax), which are then placed on the design surface. Crystal Reports also supports subreports, graphing, and a limited amount of GIS functionality.
