Hello everyone,
During migration IBO from 5.2.0  to 5.5.5  I find different  behavior strings
when have charcase property set to proper. In earlier version was only first letter set to UPCASE in first word.
Now is changed first letter of each word in string. For me is suitable earlier behavior. than I add new option to IB_CharCase.

  I thing may be helpful for everyone in future, than this is changed code:

Regards Jan
