Using Word 2007

When using the \* Caps switch in a multi word text field, is there a way to
avoid capitalizing short words like 'and' or 'of'?

TIA

As Stefan indicates the answer is no. You cannot format part of a field.
Word's title case is not that selective either.

If this was a form field that you wanted to format on exit or a piece of
selected text, you could use a macro run on exit from the form field or
manually on the selected text - see the example code at
http://www.gmayor.com/word_vba_examples.htm.- 'True Title Case' . Note that
if this is a protected form, then you will and need to make the selection
range the form field result and add code to unprotect and re-protect the
form to allow it to be formatted
