Using ProperCase in ASP

[Mike]

I'm having problem using strConv("john", 3) to generate a
propercase version of john.

does strConv not work in ASP???

Any advise is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Mike

I guess you mean in VB Script, right? If so, no.

String functions that exist in VB but not VBS:

Fixed-length strings
LSet, RSet
Mid Statement
StrConv

See here though. http://www.aspfaq.com/show.asp?id=2299

Not true! I use mid() in ASP all the time...

I think the operative word here is "statement". The Mid Statement in VB
actual modifies the input string. Sort of a positional replacer. No such
animal exists in VBScript. Ray's phrasing was somewhat misleading, but
to eer is human, ... Perhaps he should have said string "things" not in
VBScript.

P.S. Yes, I purposely misplet err. Funny no?
P.S.S Yes misplet is misspelled. Now that's damn funny!

FName = UCASE(Left(FName,1)) & LCASE(RIGHT(FName, Len
(FName)-1))

FName = Ucase(Left(FName,1)) & Lcase(Mid(FName,2))

Tru dat. ;] I also use the Mid function all the time, but not the Mid
statement.

Function Capital(S)
ReDim c(Len(S))
i = 1
Do Until i = Len(S) + 1
c(i) = Mid(S, i, 1)
i = i + 1
Loop
c(1) = UCase(c(1))
j = 2
Do Until j = UBound(c) + 1
b = b & c(j)
j = j + 1
Loop
Capital = c(1) & b
End Function

Response.Write Capital("easy")
