The Proper function is case-insensitive, which means it can handle mixed case or all uppercase text strings.
Syntax of the Proper Function
The syntax of the Proper function is as follows:
Text: The text string that you want to convert.

Tips for Using the Proper Function in Power Apps

- Always use the Proper function on a separate line in the formula editor to make it easier to read and modify.
- If you have a large data source with many text values to convert, consider using the ForAll function to apply the Proper function to all values in a specific column.
- If you want to convert only the first letter of a text value to uppercase, use the Upper function instead of the Proper function.
- If you want to convert all letters of a text value to uppercase, use the Upper function twice or use the Concat function to combine the Upper function with other text values.
