Doesn't sound like my offering will help you because LUC only affects text.
It sounds like you have to do a series of SRPL calls to fix the erroneous data.
Hopefully, your solution will work without having to go to all that trouble.

Dennis,

the real problem is as follows:

A cardreader is attached to the PC. this cardreader is ment to read a social 
security card and to load the read data into the memo field, where I can select 
the appropriate subdata by SGET and load them into the patient file.

The problem is that with the cardreader that I have to use each time I insert a 
card to read, the cardreader switches the capslock on/off.
So if it reads a number, I get the lower case signs instead of the upper case 
numbers 1 time out of 2.

So, if I set the capslock in a specific state in the field before letting the 
cardreader do his work, I should be able to solve this annoyance.

I certainly will try the LUC solution.

Luc D.

If you want to make sure the data is saved in upper case, use LUC to force it
This will assure that your data will be right even if the user turns off 
capslock.
Capslock is way too close to the TAB key. I'm always hitting it by accident and 
cussing the keyboard.

There is a property to turn on capslocks

PROPERTY APPLICATION CAPSLOCK 'ON'

You can put that in the entry eep and that should work.

Hi,

on a form I have a Note field.

It is important for me that AFTER the cursor is set in the field but BEFORE 
text is entered in this field I can make certain that capslock is ON.

how can I do that ?

Is there a Property for this ?
AFIK there is no ' set capslock on ' command....

Thanks

Luc Delcoigne
