Default Mail Merge Change Case Format

Hi,

I've completed my mail merge. However, the data source is in CAPS, and I'd
like to change that to Title Case.

For example:
JOHN DOE vs. John Doe

How can I do this without have to go in each page and formatting??

You can add a \* Caps switch to the merge field.

While the *\Caps switch should work, you may find circumstances where it
doesn't. If that happens use a \*Lower switch before the *\Caps switch,
