making a letter uppercase

making a letter uppercase

  The string class implements a method called ToUpper() that returns a copy of the original string with all the characters converted to upper case. 

  The Textbox class implements a Text property of type string that gives you access to the contents of the text box. 

  Combine these two and you should get what you want.  Something like

  Dim converted As String

  converted = TextBox1.Text.ToUpper

  Use the ">" mask character.  Such as:

   

  Public Class Form1

  Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load

  Me.MaskedTextBox1.Mask = ">AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"

  End Sub

  End Class

  Just to be clear, are we talking about a TextBox with a mask or a MaskedTextBox  

  The ">" character and others are described in the documentation for MaskedTextBox.Mask

  http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.maskedtextbox.mask.aspx

   On the other hand, a TextBox masked by something like TextBox1.PasswordChar = "*" has to be manually upcased as I described in my previous post.
