>>>i have a field called room1 with about 100 records. the field should contain lower case characters and numbers.
>>>i would like to run quick checks on all entries to make sure there are no upper case in the filed entries. is there a way to do this collectively without running through the whole file. i wrote this, which works, but i suspect there is a way to do this without going through the file piecemeal.
>>>all i want is an alert, not an inventory.

>>>use mytable
>>>scan for room1 # " "
>>>if IsUpper(room1) = .t.
>>>wait window "upper"
>>>endif
