How to Specify Uppercase or Lowercase
To force the case of the user's entry, use the following in the special character definition:
For uppercase:
/U or /u
For lowercase:
/L or /l
You can only include one case specification in each special character definition. For example, assume that you want the user to enter a part number that consists of an uppercase letter, from A ‑ D, followed by three numbers.
Your template looks like this:
[a‑d/U]nnn
or
[a‑d/u]nnn
The user can make entries in lowercase or uppercase, and the data appears in the field in uppercase.
