using System.Text.RegularExpressions;

	public static void Main() {
		string text = "the quick red fox jumped over the lazy brown DOG.";
		System.Console.WriteLine("text=[" + text + "]");

		System.Console.WriteLine("result=[" + result + "]");
		System.Console.ReadLine();

	static string CapText(Match m) {
		string temp = m.ToString();
		temp = char.ToUpper(temp[0]) + temp.Substring(1, temp.Length - 1).ToLower();

Thanks for the tip. Here's a shorter version: protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { Label1.Text = Regex.Replace(TextBox1.Text, @"\b\w", new MatchEvaluator(stam)); } protected string stam(Match m) { return m.Value.ToUpper(); } (the trick is using \b which is a 0-length match of word boundaries, including ^ and \s)
