How to uppercase certain string fields?

edited December 2004 in General
I need to uppercase certain string (data) fields in a report. I presume
that you would simply change the DisplayFormat Mask to do this - using
the standard Delphi edit mask characters ie ">" in this case.

It does not seem to work. Any hints?

    Hi Kerry,

    When you enter a Display Format for a text field in ReportBuilder, the
    string is sent into the built in FormatMaskText method. Are you able to get
    letters in a string appear in all caps using a simple application without
    ReportBuilder? This would be a good way to initially test your format
    string before using it in RB.
