Format individual words

[JosephC]

I am working on a database that has a selection of over 250 variables. Once a user selects one, i need a script to format parts of the selection

this is what it is entered like:

Aspergillus flavus group

what it needs to look like:

Aspergillus flavus group

is there a way to do this based on the over 250 variables?

Thanks

Hi

give us more hints ! :P

[JosephC]

ok , here is the steps

first a user would select a from a list (drop down type, with auto fill) then i need to format that text based on each entry

Example:

user selects Bacillus

the item needs to be displayed as Bacillus

If the user selects Enterobacter-like

the item needs to be displayed as Enterobacter-like

EDIT: I have tried using "TextStyleAdd" but must not being applying it correctly.

I just never have encountered these requirements before. This is why i am asking the forum .

Thanks

sorry but it is still not clear to me.

JosephC, I'm interested in what you plan to use the formatted text for.

Generally, text formatting is for display only and in databases is not a good way to store information. This is because any export of the data will be in plain text, which means the formatting will be stripped off. If the information is stored in formatting then it'll be nigh on impossible to get it out or to do anything meaningful with it.

I have a very vague feeling you may be looking for something like:
