Capitalize a string

I want to ask if is there any way to capitalize an entire string, so that a string looking like

QweRtY

can be automatically changed into

QWERTY

Thanks a lot!!

The method below should cater for this, the sourceString can be either single characters or complete strings.

Public Function convertCharacters(ByVal sourceString As String) As String

Dim resultString As String = ""

resultString = sourceString.Replace("á", "a")

resultString = sourceString.Replace("", "e")

resultString = sourceString.Replace("í", "i")

resultString = sourceString.Replace("ó", "o")

resultString = sourceString.Replace("ú", "u")

Return resultString

End Function

Hope this help!

There's a couple of ways to skin this one,

Dim source As String

Dim target As String

target = UCase(source)

target = source.ToUpper (+1 overload)
