I have a column in an edittable that I need to be uppercase

only. How can I do this. In a edit control there is a checkbox, but in the edittable there is none for a specified column.

If nothing else, you could create a stored procedure and use it in the input validation of the edittable control.

For example:

/*

compile subroutine CONVERT_CASE(charstr TYPE, charstr VALUE, charstr BRANCH, charstr NEWVAL)

declare function get_property

*find out if focus is in the column that you want to be uppercase

cell=get_property(ctrlentid,'SELPOS')

column=cell

if column eq 'the column you want' then

convert @lower.case to @upper.case in value

newval=value

end else

• don't convert the case

end

*/

Then use CONVERT_CASE in for the input validation for the edittable.

Something like this might do what you want.

return

See if this article works for you.

Good luck…
