I need some software which will convert all capital letters in a document into lowercase. Does anybody know if something like this is available?

Typical. As soon as I ask for help, I find the answer. ZHeCK's Case Converter seems to do the trick beautifully.

Most word processors can do this. It can also be easily accomplished in JavaScript and VBScript.

I knew I did this before for someone:

http://www.burningsoulsforum.com/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=7432

and here is the code:


<html>
<body>
<form>
<textarea name="convertText" cols="70" rows="12"></textarea>
<br>
<input type="button" value="UPPERCASE" onclick="this.form.convertedText.value = this.form.convertText.value.toUpperCase()">
<input type="button" value="lowercase" onclick="this.form.convertedText.value = this.form.convertText.value.toLowerCase()">
<input type="button" value="Original"  onclick="this.form.convertedText.value = this.form.convertText.value">
<br>
<textarea name="convertedText" cols="70" rows="12"></textarea>
</form>
</body>
</html>

Didn't realise that MS Word did that...

The software mentioned above does the job perfectly and it means that I can use Notepad, which is absolutely ideal for the (offline) project I'm undertaking.

Very handy piece of code, though. Thanks.

MarkJH, if you think Notepad is good, have a look at UltraEdit - you'll NEVER use Notepad again

Just curious...

Is there a SQL query way of doing this for MS Access?

Yes, you can do this in MS Access:

SELECT lcase(fldName1), lcase(fldName2) from tblName

no problem, but do keep in mind that this is an unconventional SQL statement. It may not work with other database types.

Not a problem. The database is offline and only used to create a datafeed, so I won't be upgrading it.
