I would like to capitalize the first letter of the first word of a string. For example, "abc def" would be "Abc def" and "xyz mno rptd" would be "Xyz mno rptd".
Any ideas?
Thank you.
There is function propcase(), but it will upcase first char of very word in your string. So you may want to try following approach:
data _null_;
a="abc def";
substr(a,1,1)=upcase(first(a));
put a=;
run;
