QUESTION:
As of Visual DataFlex 12.0 I can have column (field) names that are no longer uppercased. That is nice but am I supposed to go into database builder and change them all manually? That is a lot of work...
ANSWER:
While you can do that and you have full control over the action, you can also automate a part of the action by creating a Visual DataFlex program that uses the Database API commands.
The enclosed program runs through all filelist entries and updates the information by using a mixed_case function. Use as is or modify it yourself.
