Short of modifying the data you can't do it via configuration. This would be a nice addition to parser support though and I could sneak it into 6.2 I think if someone would be so kind as to create a ticket...

You might be able to do this with ogr2ogr. You can use a sql statement to modify the the column you want. Here are some links that might help: http://www.gdal.org/ogr2ogr.html http://www.gdal.org/ogr/ogr_sql.html http://www.bostongis.com/PrinterFriendly.aspx?content_name=ogr_cheatsheet You might try initcap(string), lower(string) I have not tried this, but it is probably worth a try. Other options would be loading the file into postgis or spatialite and modifying it there then dumping it back out or writing a C, Perl, or Python script to modify the file. -Steve W _______________________________________________ mapserver-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users _______________________________________________ mapserver-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users
