I want my data should be entered (in text box object) only in capital letters
irrespective of Caps Lock status. Is it possible??????
 
Vikas,

Add the following code to the KeyPress event of your Text box.

KeyAscii = Asc(UCase(Chr(KeyAscii)))

Set the format property of the textbox to > (greater-sign). That should
present tha data as you wish no matter the caps-lock.

Click to expand...

Just note that this format *displays* the data in all caps. What's actually
stored in the table is what's typed, as typed - lower case, upper case or
mixed case as the case may be.

Hi John,

I know the point you are making. I just assumed poster wanted capitals in
the textbox as shown on the form..
