What is the point of using the LOWER command here? Why not just

I have a list of proper nouns (names, addresses, ect.) that is
in all capital
letters, I am looking for a formula that would capitalize the
first letter of
each word and make the rest of the letters in the word
lowercase.

example: JOHN SMITH 123 MAPLE LN
would become: John Smith 123 Maple Ln

any help would be greatly apprecitated.
