This has to be very simple, but I cannot find anything in the DOCs or an
example.
I have a database that I want to allow the user to querry a record by the
persons last name. So I have a simple entry box with a button to querry the
database.
Works great as long as the user enters the text string in the same case as
has been entered in the database. "Smith" = "Smith", but if the user enters
"smith" in the select box, the record is not found.
I want to do the database select with different text formats to make sure
that the record is found.
SELECT on "Smith", "smith", "SMITH"
I found the toupper() and tolower() functions, but how do you get the
function to change only the first letter toupper in a string?
Thanks in advance for the help. This cannot be that hard.
