Use: Required

Data Type: String

A valid string expression.

A String.

Description

Converts a string to uppercase.

Rules at a Glance

  • UCase affects only lowercase alphabetical letters; all other characters within string remain unaffected.

  • UCase returns Null if string contains a Null.

VBA/VBScript Differences

VBA includes a UCase$ function that returns an uppercase string rather than a uppercase string variant. Because VBScript does not support strong typing, the function is not implemented in VBScript.
