Proper-case Conversion and Data Transformation API
NetCase for .NET
API is a data quality component that converts existing data formats into proper-cased formats that are more attractive and easier to read. NetCase applies proper-case through the use of special algorithms and Style Tables. With NetCase you can easily translate, punctuate, adjust field lengths as well as correct common misspellings before they enter your system.

How NetCase Works
NetCase for .NET is controlled by 16 user-defined Style Tables each with its own unique customizable definitions. NetCase starts by applying the algorithm for the selected Capitalization: “Title”, “Sentence”, “EachWord”, “Upper”, “Lower” or “None”. Next, every word/phrase from the input string is compared to the Style Table that was selected for that string. When a match is found, a replacement is made using the corresponding word/phrase from the selected Style Table overriding any other capitalization settings. The result is a precise transformation to proper-case no matter what type of input string.
A Closer Look
NetCase for .NET can process all types of data including Names, Addresses, City/State/Zip, Titles, Sentences and more, each with its own unique capitalization rules. The capitalization is controlled by 16 user-defined style tables. Style tables allow you to apply different capitalization rules to the same word depending on its context. NetCase does more than just proper-case conversions. You can also control field lengths using the built-in table of more than 2,300 common business word abbreviations as defined in Appendix G of USPS “Postal Addressing Standards Publication 28”.
C# and VB.NET sample applications can be found in the NetCase folder
The use of the wildcard character (*) in the style tables allows you to proper-case entire groups of words depending on their prefixes.
