I have a text field that allows both alpha and numeric entry. The numeric input can be anywhere in the field. What I am trying to accomplish is to make any alpha entry display in upper case on exit. Example entry a5df on exit would display A5DF.

Place this code in the change (or Keystroke) event for the text field

LiveCycle Form:

xfa.event.change = xfa.event.change.toUpperCase();

AcroForm:

event.change = event.change.toUpperCase();

Using LiveCycle 8, how would one change the text to be Initial Case. I have a field for names and would like the formatting to automatically capitalize the first letter

The official way to add formatting to a field is to use a "Picture Clause". There is a whole document on how to create and use this handy formatting device. Do a search for "Picture Clause" on the Adobe Developer site
