Use this function to convert text in a symbol or character string to uppercase letters.

You may find the StrUpper function useful for comparison purposes. For example, suppose a complete account number in your system appears in the format A11234, but with either an uppercase or lowercase A.

You can use the StrUpper function to convert all lowercase letters in symbols to uppercase.

  • SymName is the name of a symbol.

CREATE VARIABLE StrTemp1 AS STRING
Variable = STRUPPER ("SourceString")
