Str.Upper() Str.Lower() or else you could always make a program that does it yourself. If you wish to learn how and/or don't have these functions, use Cervantes' String Manipulation tutorial to write your own. |

funny, i was told to do it this way by someone else.. find the length compare each individual letter to see if its capitol or not if its capitol add that character to the newWord newWord:= newWord + word(i) if it is not capitol convert to capitols and add it to the newWord newWord := newWord +ch(ord(word(i))-32) i must say, i like your way much better |
