Is there any way to validate and change lower-case form field entries into Title Case?

Hi @JoshAtMNCEE 🙂  
While this is not possible using embedded HubSpot forms, you do have two possible options:  
1) Set the form as Non-HTML before embedding it on your site (external). You should then be able to add custom code to the embed code, dictating the uppercase rule for a particular field. This woul dneed some custom coding work.  
2) With HubSpot operations Hub you can use workflows to standardise your data. We could set up a workflow to enroll anyone who submit that form field and then change the field to uppercase in your sytem automatically.  
Let me know if you have any questions on this at all 🙂

Thanks [@Olivia\_Bagnall](https://community.hubspot.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/359008) . I’m comfortable with Hubspot workflows. But how would that work? I would try to set the value using a formula, but Hubspot only has calculation formulas that don’t parse strings.

Hey @JoshAtMNCEE With operations hub, workflows can standardise data in your account - this includes capitalisation.  
You can find the steps here [Format your data with workflows](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/workflows/format-your-data-with-workflows).

Required subscription: operations hub pro  
It may be possible to achieve the same result with a custom coded solution but I would need to consult my team on this for you.
