Tobias & Benoit,
thank you very much.

Damn, and to think that I translated wiki pages not long time ago.
I have a particular feature, I don't even understand what I write, sigh!

What do you think about these solutions (obviously the second solution is
not mine :-P)?

Private Function ProperCase(value As String) As String

  Dim ss As String[] = Split(value, " ")

  value = ""
  For Each s As String In ss
    value &= String.UCaseFirst(s) & " "
  Next
  Return RTrim(value)

End

Private Function ProperCase(value As String) As String

  Dim bb As Byte[]

  bb = Byte[].FromString(value)
  For i As Integer = 0 To bb.Max - 1
    If bb[i + 1] \ bb[i] = 3 Then bb[i + 1] = bb[i + 1] - 32
  Next
  Return bb.ToString(0, bb.Count)

End

Benoit, how about adding a new string function?

Regards
Gianluigi
