I have a textbox control with an Inputmask set to "!!!!!!!!!!"

the code in the Keypress event is

LPARAMETERS nKeyCode, nShiftAltCtrl

IF NOT INLIST(nKeyCode, 9, 13, 15)
	DODEFAULT()
	thisform.setFilter 
	NODEFAULT
ENDIF	

When I press a key the value in the textbox shows as lower case and is treated as lower case in the setFilter method. When the control loses focus, the value in the control becomes upper case.

Is there anything I can do to have the value immediately displayed as Upper Case?

I tried putting

this.value = UPPER(this.value)
this.selstart = LEN(TRIM(this.value))

immediately after DODEFAULT()

and that seems to work. But I'm curious if there is simply some property that I can set or a better way to get the value immediately in upper case.

Thanks to all...............Rich
