Hi:
How can I implement the automatic capitalization of first letter as a format in a text data type . Thank you

There is no format string for this.
You have to use code (or a macro) in the textbox's afterupdate event.

Using the afterupdate event procedure you would have:

me.mytextboxnamehere =
strconv(me.mytextboxnamehere,vbpropercase)
