I guess I'm not sure what the above dictionary entry would look like. Would 
this be a dictionary entry
that's just used to do the conversion on NAME?

Currently this is what I have for field name:

      NAME
> 0001 D
> 0002 5
> 0003 
> 0004 Name
> 0005 25L
> 0006 S
> 0007
> 0008 CHARACTER,25

So I would be creating another DICT entry called NAME.UPCASE, the part I don't 
understand is 

#1) what that DICT would look like
#2) how that DICT entry would be used

Sorry for the numerous questions.
