Re: [U2] Working with accented characters
If it's for internal use, I'd set up my own function (or subroutine)
with the one - to - one relationships between each lower case accented
letter and it's upper case equivalent. If the idea is to send info to a
third party, or to use in a different database within you company, be
careful that: a) not all third parties are able to recieve accented
characters, b) It is completely acceptable and frequenty used in spanish
speaking countries to strip accents off upper-case letters. If is quite
common to see JOSE rather than JOSÉ, c) Make sure that the ascii
equivalents in UV for the accented letters coincide with what your third
party recieves. Perhaps you send char(xxx) as a Á, but the recieving
party expects char(yyy).

Marc

Subject: [U2] Working with accented characters
To convert the first character of a regular ASCII string to
uppercase, I'd use OCONV("STRING",'MCT') so that "STRING" is output
as
"String". However, this doesn't seem to work for Spanish accented
characters. The machine is UV 11.1.11 with NLS enabled.
What is the most elegant way to convert a name, such as JOSÉ to José
? I'm not a sys admin, so if it requires setting up an NLS map or
something along those lines, I'm probably out of luck.
