Thanks Ken,

Exactly what I was looking for inline processing...

Zz="now"
Aa="We need to leave the building"<doedit(zz,"allup")

Thanks again,
Stanley

Or, use the DOEDIT() function without having to define a variable just for that purpose.

In addition to ALLUP, there's also ALLOW, LOWUP. and UPLOW.
