Dears,

Capitalize first letter of a string for Composed words like : Follow-up
Example : From follow-up → To Follow-up
Note : Need slight modification of : StrConv(“Word”.ToString, VbStrConv.ProperCase), which is returning : Follow-Up instead of Follow-up

Hey @hsendel

Just try this,

strConv(0).ToString.ToUpper + strConv.Skip(1).ToString

If required you can add ToLower in the second half, just in case

Hope this helps

Thanks

In fact “Word” is one item from “For Each” Activity.

So @hsendel, your for-each type argument should be a string ! Currently it may be set to an object that’s the reason for the late binding error.

Hey @hsendel

Keep the type argument of for-each as Match data type.

In the statement inside For-each just do this.

Word.Value(0).ToString.ToUpper + new String(Word.Value.Skip(1).ToArray)

Hope this helps.

There is no this option in the list : type argument of for-each as Match data type.

Hey @hsendel

Go to browse for types → Search Match → Choose Match which is under mscorlib → Regular expression

If you are not sure on this, just send a screenshot of that window can point it out for you.
