    It works fine. Thank you.
    Can you explain if possible, why PROPER(text) didn't work ?

    'cos you're French... Your PC is set to French regional settings, as you can see from the screenshot. In French, the equivalent of PROPER is NOMPROPRE. Did I just try to teach a Frenchman/woman his/her language????
