As stated by Fernand, styles are the way to go.

Just to add some details: you only get *data* from a database. Not 
formatting, never. The formatting has to be done within the presentation 
tool, here in the text processor, by applying the appropriate formats 
wherever you need them.

EG: you may apply an ALL CAPSs or Title Case format to the field you want.
