Returns the first letter of each word in phrase (in upper case).

Description:

Here is another recursive function which is designed to extract the initial letter of each word in the supplied text.

It may have a number of practical applications, including returning the initals from a name field or the acronym from a company name.

... or maybe you'd like to use it as the 'core technology' for a FileMaker guessing game that will keep your kids entertained some rainy day. :)

Note: these functions are not guaranteed or supported by BrianDunning.com. Please contact the individual developer with any questions or problems.
