check if word starts with uppercase or lowercase

Offline CodeZodiac over 4 years ago

Hi,

I have a word: korado. But I want to check if it starts(so first character) with uppercase or lowercase.

I do it now like this:

RecSalesHeaderQuote.FncCheckBOM('orado');

koradoval1 := 'korado';
//koradoval2 := 'Korado';

IF koradoNewVal := (UPPERCASE(COPYSTR(koradoval1,1,1)) OR  koradoNewVal :=  LOWERCASE(COPYSTR(koradoval1,1,1))) THEN BEGIN
       RecSalesHeaderQuote.FncCheckBOM(koradoNewVal);

But this doesnt work. I get an error

IF koradoNewVal :=
will not work

:= means assignment of a value, you can't use that in a comparison (the IF statement).

My suggestion: use .Net interop.

Go with Char.IsUpper(string) where string is the first character of the value you want to test.
Like: IF Char.IsUpper(koradoval[1]) THEN

Create a variable, e.g. DotNetChar of subtype:
System.Char.'mscorlib, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089'

(Assembly = mscorlib, Type = System.Char)

Then do:
IF DotNetChar.IsUpper(koradoval[0])
Cancel
Up 0 Down
