Thanks, Ted. Works great. I'll have to put this in with my accumulation of tips and tricks.

Try this for the date.

Dim _date As String = Today.ToString("MM dd yy")

Subject: [Vantage] VB Formatting

I want to take the user environment name and make sure it is capitalized. The statement now is
dim UsrName As String = environment.Username
It doesn't like either UPPER or TOUPPER as in UPPER(environment.Username).
Â
Secondly, I want to get only today's date and not the time, etc from:
dim dteToday As Date = Date.Now()
Â
Can I get the formatting for this?
Â
Thanks, - Karl

Is this is C# opr VB?

Either way it should be
dim UsrName As String = environment.Username.ToString().ToUpper()

Thanks Jose,
I had read some message in the past in which the author recommended using ToUpper but I was unfamiliar with the formatting of the command.Â -Karl
