I have been developing an app in VB6. My development machine is an XP Pro
machine but I have a Windows 7 box that I use for testing. Everything has
been working great.....until today. I use a text box that I have modified
to automatically capitalize the 1st letter of each word. This ocx control
is based off of a text box. On the Windows 7 box, it stopped working.
Does anyone have any knowledge of a change that would affect the behaviour of
a text box, or anything I can do to try to fix this? This is used all
through my program.

Thanks in advance.

There's really no way anyone can answer that. But it seems like
*major* overkill to use an OCX for something that simple.

Private Sub Text1_Change()
Text1.Text = StrConv(Text1.Text, vbProperCase)
End Sub
