Hello

In my PostgreSQL database i have records inserted in Uppercase.
For example: VIA SENATO

What i want is to change them to "Via Senato". Ofcourse i'm looking for a automatico way. I wrote this code update registro1 set pa_indirizzo = upper(substr(pa_indirizzo, 1, 1)) && lower(substr(pa_indirizzo, 2, length(pa_indirizzo) - 1)) But it doesn't work.

When i run only update registro1 set pa_indirizzo = upper(substr(pa_indirizzo, 1, 1)) It gets me the first letter and when i run
update registro1 set pa_indirizzo = lower(substr(pa_indirizzo, 2, length(pa_indirizzo) - 1)) I get from the second letter to the last. But when i join them them don't work..

Anyone got any idea??

Thanks
