Answer : convert text to lowercase in a table

The code is a SQL query. You can create a new query, switch to SQL view, paste it there, and adjust your table and field names. Each time it's run, it will convert all strings stored in the field to lower case.

If you need this to happen regularly during editing, you should perhaps use the "after update" event of the text box displaying it.
