Hi,

My program is in lower case i need to change that in upper case instead of giving uc in all lines. Is it possible? If so, anyone please let me know how.

Thanks in advance.

R's,
Prema.

Hi,

UCUC on first line and last line will do the trick if I understood the question correctly, ie. block command

Also, typing UC9999 on the first line will change all lines to upper case (up to 9,999 of them).

Maybe you got that message because there were no lower case characters to start with!

No, I didn't do that.

Well, I think, if PROFile settings take precedence to this command then you are right. In my PROFile settings 'CAPS ON' was active, the moment I press enter I think because of PROFile settings 'lower case' were already 'upper case' before the above command could actually 'act' & so the message (No CHARS '<' found) am I right ?

Some of my programs have large notes at the top to never convert them to all upper case. It will break them!

This is one of the reasons why I'm following this thread. Wish to know, where did I go wrong in my understanding.

Hi Anuj D. !

You're might be right with your first thought.

CHARS '<' changed, will appear when letters are changed from lower case to upper case, regardless of profile setting.

I had a quick test.

No CHARS '<' found is displayed only if there are no letters to change,
regardless which profile settings are made.

Have a nice day,
UmeySan
