Carol is talking of a colon inside an expansion. So if the expansion is "CURRENT MEDICATIONS:" Instant Text does not look inside the expansion and does not set the state of a new sentence.

Actually, Carol asked me first how to do it and I could not find a way. I suggested that she ask the question on the forum in case one of you has found a technique.

The challenge remains open...

PS. I hope one of you has found a way of doing it. If not, a future version of Instant Text could either look inside the expansion -- complex in the case of a formatted entry or an entry with commands. Alternatively, we could add a new command {capitalize} to tell IT to capitalize after. Neither of these ideas is very ripe yet.
