Hello,

May I know is there a psql method that can do similar to initcap, and could also keep Roman numbers (II, IV, VI, etc) to be capitalized please?

For example, string shows "Title II" but not "Title Ii".

Thanks a lot.

Hi Emi,

I think you can do this only with knowledge about the meaning of these strings.
It is no question of psql or any other database system but of language an logic.

Take for example "Modern Music Mix".
This can be a mix-up of music but also the 1009th part of a collection.

Or for example the car Hyundai Tucson ix, where ix doesn't mean the number 9.

Regards Martin
