Function: Upper

Description

Converts a string to uppercase letters.

Syntax

Upper(string)

Arguments

string can be a constant, a character field, an expression that results in a string or a function that returns a string.

Return value

This function returns a character string.

Calculated field example

If the State field contained the value Mi, the following calculated field expression would return MI: Upper(State)

Filter/Find example

All filter expressions are case insensitive, so Upper has no practical application here. For find expressions, use the Match Case setting to determine case sensitivity.
