Checking for capital letters

Post Author: billwelsh
CA Forum: General
I have a name and address table in an Oracle database (26,000) entries. I would like to produce a simple report printing any records that have the first name,middle name or surname that have been entered as all capitol letters. Any ideas. Should I create a custom function isUpper() if so how do I do this.
Mant thanks for your help

1.  File | Report Options | Uncheck the box next to 'Database Server is Case-Insensitive'
2. For your selection criteria type in:
({DATABASE.LNAME} = ucase({DATABASE.LNAME})
or
{DATABASE.FNAME} = ucase({DATABASE.FNAME})
or
{DATABASE.MNAME} = ucase({DATABASE.MNAME}));
This should give you only those records where the Last or First or Middle Name is all caps.  The only thing to watch out for would be hyphens in the name.  It might not be a problem but test it.

  • Entering numbers and capital letters using T-Mobile G2

    This could be device specific, but whenever I press the alt key on my phone's keyboard to enter a number, the number will not show, only the letter that is on that key. i have to hold alt plus the key to get the number. Same issue for capital letters.
    Figured this out when I tried entering my sync information.

    Thanks for the report. We are working on fixing this bug. For details, see https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=599811

  • Spell Checking Text with All Capital Letters

    Is it possible to change a spell check option in Adobe, like you can in MS Word, to include words in all capital letters? we have thousnads of documents that require all text to be all capitals and spend an appreciable amount of time spell checking by copying to MS Word to discover errors. No one I've talked to seems to have an answer.

    As I understand it the spell check in Acrobat is for text in annotations only.
    It does not check PDF page content..
    Such content needs to be spell/grammer checked before converting to PDF.
    Be well...

    For web and computing experts I would like to remind them that all the peoples nowadays have the same needs (or hobbies if you wish) regarding the electronic devices, web, compouters, softwares and that sort of thing.
    If I WERE not to have technical support because of my prefiously used capital letters in me text messages, I have to confess that next time I will be more carefull about the devices producers........ I live and always learn (SOCRATES, girasko, aei didaskomenos)
    Two questions
    1. I noticed on the you tube videos about the new ipad that the main icons are more than mine (i.e. the icon of facebook and a number or others are missing)
    2. I would like to ask you to do me a favour, thanks for your patiene. Still I have not understood how (in which way, the pictures, transfered from my system or new taken by the ipad camera are uploaded directly to the FaceBook. I suppose that I will not have the same difficulties regarding the videos to both Facebook AND YoutTube. Thanks a lot for your patience with me, from now on I will be more carefull about posting messages to you referring to technical support

    Some of the apps shown in adverts / videos have been downloaded from the App Store, they don't come pre-installed e.g. the Facebook app is a free download the app store : 'official' Facebook app.
    To upload photos to Facebook you can use the above app - you can't, for example, use Safari on the iPad to upload content to sites.
    Not sure whether any apps allow you to upload videos to YouTube (I don't use the site).

  • Checking for letters and numbers

  • How to convert capital letters to non-capital letters?

    Does anyone know how to do this? Currently, I have a small Widget in Dashboard that I found that does this perfectly, however, its too annoying to have to convert it and then copy & paste it into a Text application (ie. Page or Word).
    I was hoping, no let me rephrase, dreaming that Pages could do so, but I don't think it does; so I was hoping someone can tell me if they know of any programs that I can use that does just that.
    Some great features that I would like, but not necessary, is:
    1) that it allows you to export directly into any applicaiton (ie, Pages or Word)
    2) the ability to convert from non-capital letters (sentences, paragraphs and even pages in bulk) to capital letters.
    Anyone? I would appreciate any feedback, good or bad. Thanks!

    Hi DennisG
    This initially seemed odd to me too.
    I think it is because Pages retains the original Unicode character and regards capitalization as a formatting change - not a change to the character code itself. To illustrate, type the sentence "Dinner is booked for Dennis and Ian on Friday afternoon at 1pm." into Pages. You will notice that as you toggle between All Caps and None for the Capitalization setting, the appropriate case is preserved for things like proper nouns and the start of the sentence. Not a big deal for one sentence but imagine you had hundreds or thousands of sentences that you wanted in the same style and wished to experiment with presenting them in capitals!
    Pages isn't alone in doing this. Microsoft Word on Windows behaves the same way if you select the All caps check box in the Font dialog. Word provides a separate Change Case ... menu option that seems to permanently convert the actual characters instead of their appearance.
    I think it would be useful for Pages to have a similar feature and suggest that Vito submits feedback in the normal manner.

  • Edit PSA results in CAPITAL letters

    We import data from non-SAP systems and occasionally they contain erroneous data.  We edit the PSA to make the correction and then reload.  Unfortunately we have encountered a side-effect - the character string fields are all converted to capital letters (even though lowercase is allowed).
    Any suggestions on preventing this would be appreciated.
    Ian.

    Hi Ian,
    you can try the following in the start routine of your transfer rules:
    data: l_allowedchar type rsallowchar,
          l_allchar(200) type c,
          l_uppercase type syabcde,
          l_lowercase(26) type c,
          l_strlen type i,
          l_replchar type c value space,
          l_count type i,
          l_index type i.
    select single allowchar into l_allowchar
    from rsallowedchar.
    l_uppercase = sy-abcde.
    translate l_uppercase to upper case.
    l_lowercase = sy-abcde.
    translate l_lowercase to lower case.
    concatenate l_allowedchar l_uppercase l_lowercase '0123456789' into l_allchar.
    loop at datapak into l_s_datapak_line.
    l_index = sy-tabix.
    now, for each field you want to check
    if l_s_datapak_line-<field name> cn l_allchar.
    the field doesn't contain only allowed chars
    l_strlen = strlen(l_s_datapak_line-<field name>.
    l_count = 0.
    do l_strlen times.
    l_count = l_count + 1.
    if l_s_datapak_line-<field name>+l_count(1) na l_allchar.
      l_s_datapak_line-<field name>+l_count(1) = l_replchar.
    endif.
    enddo.
    endif.
    modify datapak from l_s_datapak_line index l_index.
    endloop.
    Please check it carefully, I was writing this just from memory without any abab syntax check ....
    But in general it will replace not allowed characters with space.
    Hope this helps!

  • Momentarily stops working when shift key is used to type in capital Letters

    I've been using Firefox for an year, when ever I try to use shift key to google something or type something in capital letters firefox momentarily stops and resumes after 45-60 seconds..!
    I'm using the latest version of firefox 23.0.1 but, the problem still persists.

    Hello,
    Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
    You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
    Then perform these steps:
    *Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
    *In the Firefox options window click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select "General".
    *In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
    *Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
    Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
    * [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
    * [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
    Thank you.

    Hi Jim,
    Tough to tell, but I'd try this for a good start.
    I think you should get Applejack...
    http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/15667/applejack
    After installing, reboot holding down CMD+s, (+s), then when the DOS like prompt shows, type in...
    applejack AUTO
    Then let it do all 6 of it's things.
    At least it'll eliminate some questions if it doesn't fix it.
    The 6 things it does are...
    Correct any Disk problems.
    Repair Permissions.
    Clear out Cache Files.
    Repair/check several plist files.
    Dump the VM files for a fresh start.
    Trash old Log files.
    First reboot will be slower, sometimes 2 or 3 restarts will be required for full benefit... my guess is files relying upon other files relying upon other files! :-)
    Disconnect the USB cable from any Uninterruptible Power Supply so the system doesn't shut down in the middle of the process.

    Hi Datta, thanks for the reply
    according to SAP Note 1062872 (2005B version) it reads as
    "The excise register for excisable items of type raw materials/finished goods is currently set to RG32A Part I. When you create an out going excise invoice with these type of items, the accumulator for RG32A Part I will be increased."
    I thought the same is applicable with SAP Business One 2007B version.  However what you said might be correct.  But the problem with one of my manufacturing client is whenever they raising an Outgoing Excise invoice  they have registered numbers automatically be created on the pre printed invoice paper.  where the invoice will be printed only with the qty, rate , price and register numbers rest of the information on the document is pre-printed.  So they have a column called RG23C Part I / II where register numbers are automatically printed.  But RG23C Part I & II are for "Capital Goods"
    If I consider these manufactured items as "capital goods" then it will raise register numbers automatically.  but this will not acceptable.  correct me if i am wrong.  so all of these items should be cosidered as Finished Goods in the item master data.  if i do that again there is a conflict with their RG23C Part I / II on the pre-printed column and i wont be raising any register numbers. 
    Please update me on how should I deal with this issue

  • Down payment against the Internal Order - for Capital Expenditure

    Dear friends
    I am getting an error while making down payment against the purchase order.
    The order of my entries or steps are as follows:
    Created one internal order for Capital WIP with budget and availability control activation.
    Created one purchase order against a vendor with reference to the above Internal Order.
    When I am making the down payment to the vendor through tcode:F-48, the system throwing an error
    "Define Cost Elements for Down Payments".
    Can any one please explain why this error is coming. When I checked in Internal orders, there is a TCode: OKEP for Define Default Cost Elements for Down Payments.
    System is asking for cost element, but where as what ever the down payment we are making is nothing but advance which is current asset. Why system is asking for cost element?
    Can any one give me the guidance how to handle the issue.
    Thanks in Advance
    Kiran Kumar A

    The reason is when you want the down payment for AUC to be capitalised, then you would need to create cost element for Downpayments.
    Normally as per design of SAP, down payment being a Balance Sheet Account (Current Asset as you rightly mentioned) doesnot need / accept an Cost object, as a special case since down payments for AUC needs to be capitalised and hence need to be carried to Controlling (Internal Order) by creating Cost Element for Downpayments.
    Go ahead and create the cost element. That would resolve your issue.
