Sorry, "Initial", but here, this solved the issue unless you have a better idea. `s/(?<=\w)(.)/\l\1/g for $test; s/Ltd/LTD/ for $test;` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

Hrm.. you could almost do `s/\b([^aeiouy\W]+)\b/\U$1/g;` [download] That will uppercase any words with no vowels... not perfect, but works for a number of them. - Ant - Some of my best work - (1 2 3)	[reply] [d/l]
