Hi,

 

Wanting to use Proper() to tidy addresses but it changes NW, SW, NE, SW etc. to Nw, Sw, Ne Sw, is there is a function to keep uppercase words like that but correct the rest?

    Hi @Sighman ,

     

    Powerapps does not have a similar function.

    You could use Proper() function first then use Substitute() function .

    This needs hardcode to save the address.

    Unfortunately substitute() won't work as it tends to mess up other words...eg. 23 Swift Lane will end up as 23 SWift LaNE....

    I was hoping to not have some massive if() statement using endwith()...but that looks like my only solution
