Uppercase to lowercase

2 New Member
I have an access mailing list. I received it in UPPERCASE and have been able to change the 1st letter to UPPERCASE and the rest to lowercase except that in Proper Names like McDonald, McInnis, they come out as Mcdonald or Mcinnis. I have tried to modify my query to accommodate this; however, unsuccessfully. Here is my query, and wondering how I could change it to accommodate my problem:

UPDATE [All Councils] SET [All Councils].LastName = StrConv([LastName],3), [All Councils].FirstName = StrConv([FirstName],3), [All Councils].Address1 = StrConv([Address1],3), [All Councils].Address2 = StrConv([Address2],3), [All Councils].Address3 = StrConv([Address3],3), [All Councils].Address4 = StrConv([Address4],3);

Tks

Has someone got a Python routine or module which converts Unicode strings to lowercase (or uppercase)? What I actually need to do is to compare a number of strings in a case-insensitive manner, so I assume it's simplest to convert to lower/upper first. Possibly all strings will be from the latin-1 character set, so I could convert to 8-bit latin-1, map to lowercase, and convert back, but that seems rather cumbersome.

Hi all, I need to make a function that convert a string into a certain format. Here what are the restriction: -The first letter of the first and last name must be uppercase. -If a first name contains only 1 character, a '.' must follow the char. -If we find a character that isn't a letter (.&*-), we must swap it for a '/' and add the correct spaces. I tried making a function but my switch seems to have an error. If anyone

How do I convert existing lowercase data to uppercase in Access 2000? I used the following which did not work? UPDATE HousingTowns SET tMunis=UPPER(tMunis); "HousingTowns" is the table name. "tMunis" is the field name in which the lowercase text is stored in 154 000 rows. I get the error message "Undefined function 'UPPER' in expression".

I have a table the contains field called PersonID. Each record in the personID field begins with the letter "p" in uppercase or lowercase. I want to run a query that finds all of the lowercase "p"s and converts them to uppercase. I cannot figure out how to do this easily as there are over 30,000+ records. Can someone point me in the right direction? Thanks

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
