uppercases

Use this function to convert a text to uppercase.

The uppercases function has been superseded by the uppercase_of_characters function. Unless Enhanced Unicode Support is disabled, all calls to uppercases are automatically mapped to the uppercase_of_characters function. 

uppercases ( input )

This function returns a value of type TEXT.

The function has one parameter:

  • input, type TEXT. The text which is converted.

Examples 

uppercases ("This is an EXAMPLE") results in "THIS IS AN EXAMPLE"

The uppercases function is limited to content that only consists of latin-1 text. This function does not support word processor instructions or Unicode content. Use of this function with non latin-1 content can result in run-time errors or broken result documents.
