Somewhat annoying but not the end of the world, but if you are able to re-program the Auto-Format the text fields so that when a hyphenated name is detected TD does not change the first letter after the hyphen to a miniscule letter?
Example; Billie-Jo is changed to Billie-jo.
Here in Quebec (and in any country where french is dominant) there are countless hyphenated names (Jean-Luc, Jean-Pierre, Marie-Josee and the list goes on for pages). As I dais at the beginning, it is just a bit visually annoying and doesn't affect functionality but....
Thanks

I totally understand. I will see about changing this, although I fear that because the software is used in countries all over the world, there could be a million tweaks to make this work for everyone ...
So here's a question for you (in a French dominated location): is it customary to put your surname first and fully capitalize it? For example, I write my name as "Corey Cooper", but for French customers I keep seeing the format "COOPER Corey" (or at least "Corey COOPER").

No, only thing capitalized is the first letter, nothing more

names are written exact same order as in english

I've run into a similar quirk. I have Irish names like O'Neill where the "O" is capitalized but the "N" is not. I try to make the change but it never takes, it always reverts back to "n". The funny thing is at some point (maybe on a previous software version) this did not occur because I do have some that display as "N" (O'Neill). I currently use the latest 3.0 version. Am I missing a preferences setting or something?

Right at the bottom of the New Player dialog: "Auto format name fields"

Fantastic. That did the trick. Thanks Corey.
