^!v::  
clipboard:=ClipboardAll  
StringLower, string, clipboard  
StringTrimLeft, output, string, 1  
StringLeft, FirstChar, string, 1  
StringUpper, FirstChar, FirstChar  
sendraw %FirstChar%%output%  
Return

Horribly hacky, but it works :)

Proof: How are you

lol @ the String trim. XD. Creative. – RJFalconer Jan 9 '10 at 17:51
I write my worst code before caffeine, but it always works! I bet somebody's gonna come and tell me there's a function for it anyway :P – Phoshi Jan 9 '10 at 17:53
it's not working it's giving this output ^!v:: clipboard:=clipboardall stringlower, string, clipboard stringtrimleft, output, string, 1 stringleft, firstchar, string, 1 stringupper, firstchar, firstchar sendraw %firstchar%%output% return: – metal gear solid Feb 4 '10 at 8:21
@Jitendra; That's correct output. Unfortunately I didn't have time to support multiple lines. (It's capitalising the ^ in ^!v, thus you see no capitalisation) – Phoshi Feb 4 '10 at 8:49
I want to change "How Are YOU" to "How are you" and this script is not working. – metal gear solid Feb 4 '10 at 18:25

In word 2003, select the text, "format" menu, "change case", "sentence case"
