CaSe InSeNsItIvE?

My friend asked me this and i didn't know so i am asking you guys/gals....

He Has a button and a Textbox:

If text1.text = "Chris" then
form2.show
unload me
end if

But he wants it to work even if text1.text is:
ChRiS
chris
CHRIS
you know.. ANY case... but he doesn't want to do every kind of case there is for the name.

Any way for this to work?

do this:

If UCase$(text1.text) = "CHRIS" then
  form2.show
  unload me
end if

You can convert to upper case no matter what:

If Ucase(Text1.Text) = "CHRIS" Then
    Form2.Show
    Unload Me
End If

You could also use the StrComp method:

   If StrComp(Text1.Text, "chris", vbTextCompare) = 0 Then
      Form2.Show
      Unload Me
   End If

ew.. StrComp is a neet function, but it's too slow. UCase$ is much faster. I always use UCase$ over StrComp and UCase because it deals with Strings only, ie no Variant manipulating. (it's a VB programming habit I guess.)
