Purpose

Function to convert characters to lower case


Syntax

STRTOLOWER(<expC>)


See Also

ISLOWER(), ISUPPER(), LOWER(), PROPER(), SET STRESCAPE, STRTOUPPER(), STRTRAN(), TRANSFORM(), UPPER()


Description

The STRTOLOWER() function converts the characters in the character expression <expC> to lower case. This function is particularly useful if used in index keys and their corresponding SEEK expressions, since a search expression in lower case will match both upper and lower case characters.


Example

? strtolower("Recital")
recital
 
// Another Example
use accounts
index on strtolower(company) to company
replace company with "Company Name"
seek "company name"
? found()
.T.
