is there an efficient way to deal with capital letters

[timle]

Hello,
I use if statement to look for a certain word below but I have to use several "if" statement to catch all the possible capital letters( See below) is there a more efficient way to do that with out getting complicated

thanks

sample:

if>segment_1=hou,moveon,
if>segment_1=Hou,moveon,
if>segment_1=HOU,moveon,

What about this...

Code: Select all

UpperCase>segment_1,segment_1
If>segment_1=HOU,moveon
...

or force to lowercase, whichever works better.

what I want to do is seach for the file start with "hou",HOU,Hou" then moveon, so I can use like this



UpperCase>segment_1,segment_1
LowerCase>segment_1,segment_1

If>segment_1=HOU,moveon
...

right?

Hi timle,

Here's what I would do...

Code: Select all

Let>segment_1=Hou

UpperCase>segment_1,segment_1

If>segment_1=HOU,moveon
//if>segment_1=Hou,moveon, 
//if>segment_1=HOU,moveon,  

MDL>No... the value of variable segment_1 does not was equal to HOU (case-insensive)... now what?
//insert additional code here...
Goto>End

Label>moveon
MDL>Yes... the value of variable segment_1 was equal to HOU (case-insensive) so we've "moved on"
//insert additional code here...

Label>End

This will get the list of files names starting with "hou" and is not case sensitive

Code: Select all

GetFileList>%Desktop_Dir%\hou*.*,HOU_files,;
Separate>HOU_files,;,HOU_file_names

Then you can work with each one until the list is completed.
