Greetings List - I have a variable edit object into which automobile
part numbers are entered. They may be up to 10 characters and any
combination of alpha and numeric. The alpha needs to be upper case.
To convert possible lower case alpha to upper, I've tried various format
masks in the Format Mask field on the Effects tab; another approach was
to put an LUC function in the On Key Press EEP but the results were
quirky at best.
SET VAR vPartNbr = (LUC(.vPartNbr))
RECALC VARIABLES
RETURN
I'd prefer to convert each alpha character to upper case as it's typed
or should I do an LUC in an exit EEP?
Any suggestions?
I've checked the FTE article from 2005 but that's for formatting phone
#'s, ZIPs & SSNs, not case conversion.
TIA,
Doug
