Hi all. Checked the docs and all I can find is UCase but that will convert
everything to upper. What I want is when my users enter say a name into a
text box I want to just upper the first char for them if they forget to.
TIA

Robert,
VB's StrConv function will do that. For example:
StudentName = StrConv(Student Name , VbStrConv.Prope rCase)
I don't know of a ".Net" way of accomplishing the same thing.

For ProperCase, the ".NET" way is exactly the same as VB6, no difference.
The following is from VB2005 Help -
Visual Basic 6.0 Visual Basic 2005 Equivalent
vbUpperCase VbStrConv.Upper Case
vbLowerCase VbStrConv.Lower Case
vbProperCase VbStrConv.Prope rCase
vbWide VbStrConv.Wide
vbNarrow VbStrConv.Narro w
vbKatakana VbStrConv.Katak ana
vbHiragana VbStrConv.Hirag ana
vbUnicode No equivalent constant. You can achieve the same functionality
by using the Convert method.
vbFromUnicode No equivalent

You can play it anyway you want with a function of your own making or
whatever to return the string with the first character in upper case.
Function 1stCharUpper(ct rl as Textbox)
do what you have to do in the manipulation of the string.
dim x as string = ctrl.Text.Subst ring(1).ToUpper
return x = x & ctrl.text.subst ring(2, length)
end function
Thank you Kerry

Kerry,
Probably you mean with the .Net way. A way in the .Net namespace System.Net,
there is not, this is in the .Net namespace VisualBasic.

Hi all, I need to make a function that convert a string into a certain
