Capitalize first letter in mysql:
To make first letter capital in mysql use the following format:
UPDATE tablename SET
FieldName = CONCAT(UPPER(LEFT(FieldName,1)),SUBSTRING(FieldName FROM 2));
For eg,
update table1 set
name1= CONCAT(UPPER(LEFT(name1, 1)), SUBSTRING(name1 FROM 2));
Now there is no need to change the field name individually to capitalize first letter in mysql.
Hence it saves time to make first letter capital in mysql using a single query.
