Forcing text into UPPER CASE???

[Nicollini webforumsuser@macromedia.com]

Is it possible to force a text members contents into upper case.

E.g. 'nik' would be typed into a editable text box, it would then be turned into 'NIK' when submitted.

Can this be done and if so how?

Thanks.

Nick

a little approach, that can be improved :

-----------------------------------
on toUpperChar pChar
set myChar = pChar
set myNum = CharToNum (myChar )
if ( myNum >= CharToNum ("a")) and (myNum <= CharToNum ("z")) then
myChar = NumToChar (myNum + CharToNum("A") - CharToNum("a"))
end if
return (myChar)
end
-----------------------------------
on toUpperString pString
nbChar = pString.char.count
set myString= ""
repeat with i = 1 to nbChar
put toUpperChar (pString.char[i]) after myString
end repeat
return (myString)
end
-----------------------------

put toUpperString ("a.b,c1d*e-f")
--A.B,C1D*E-F

Where did you find this feature. Can´t find it in the manual.

I did manage to find fontStyle = [#AllLower] (not in the manual)


Is this the new undoced Lingo of DMX?
