How are you calling it?
Just having the handler there doesn't magically do anything. You'd have to
do something like:
myText =the text of member "userData"
myText =ForceUppercase(myText)
set the text of member "userData" to myText
Are you doing anything like that? If so, what happens?
Also, remember you have a debugger available. It's good experience to set
a breakpoint at the top of the handler and step through it to see what's
happening.
