Uppercase to lowercase letters

Hi,
I was unable to change all the titles at once
from:
"And Then There Were None"
to:
"And then there were none"
it's possible to do it?
Thanks and bye

Do you know how to use the Regex-Function search?

If not, post an example of what needs to be changed, including the surrounding tags, and we might be able to help out.

Hello Karellen,
the surrounding tags are in fig. 1.
what I would like to do is in fig. 2, but evidently it is not correct because I would like to change all the words of all the titles to lowercase while only the first word to uppercase. thanks again for your help.
Bye

Sometimes it's best to convert to lowercase first.

No need to apologise, with so many options it's not hard to miss the one you want.
