Thanks Nigel. Worked like a charm. I could swear that I
tried .ToUpper before. Must have been on the wrong event.

Merci Beaucoup, Muchas Gracias, Maraming Salamat, Thank You Very
Much!

Vantage newbie here. We're on 8.03.406a.

I don't see an uppercase property for the textbox control I'm adding to
a customized form. I've looked around and found code examples to set
ExtendedProperties but the following doesn't work.

edv.dataView.Table.Columns("ShortChar01").ExtendedProperties
("Uppercase") = True

Thanks

This is one of the first customisations I put in - I like all CustIDs
to be in uppercase! I'm not sure if you can set a textbox's
properties to enforce uppercase, so I used the BeforeFieldChange
event and added in the following code:

Select Case args.Column.ColumnName
Case "CustID"
args.ProposedValue = args.ProposedValue.ToUpper()
Case Else
End Select
