Default How do I hold the case on a merge data field?

When I try to Merge in a field into Word from another source, the source has
it in all Caps. I want to change case to title font. I do so under Format.
It does not hold the case? Help!

Use a formatting switch on the field eg
{Mergefield fieldname \*Caps}
you may need
{Mergefield fieldname \*Lower \*Caps}
to get it to work. See Word help under switches and
