[RESOLVED] Case Statement ignore capitals

[obscuregirl]

Hi

I'm trying to add some validation to a text field in which the user is supposed to enter a month name. I'm wanting to check that the input is equal to one of the months of the year. I thought I could do a case statement e.g.

Select Case month.Text
Case "January"
etc........

However, it is possible that the user would enter "january" rather than "January". Is there any way that I can check the input and ignore the case so that I don't have to double the length of the select statement by putting in each month with and without a capital letter?

Hi, just convert the whole string to upercase or lower case

select case month.text.toupper
    case "JANUARY"
