Python!

Here's an interpretive session. Of course you'd do this in a script stored
in the IFS and invoked from a CL. None of the silly >>> stuff would of
course be there at runtime, that is just interpretive sesssion detritus.

fname = "jack"
lname = "woehr"
print(fname.capitalize() + " " + lname.capitalize())

You won’t find any functions in rpg or sql that will do this, I don’t
believe.

Just write your own procedure (my preference would be an sql udf), and by
all means terminate that off platform call to achieve this functionality.

Hi everyone
Before I forget, we are on V7r3

We have a process in place that makes a call (java) to an external
server, passing in the customers name (in upper case) to have it returned
in mixed case - good for a letter
For example - my name would be translated from ALAN SHORE, to Alan Shore
This was built 12 or 13 years ago, and we never had a problem - until
yesterday
We could not contact that external server - and the program is forced
into msgw
This program is the backbone to out Order Management system - so no
orders were being processed
Fortunately we discovered the root of the problem (someone had turned
the server off) and we were able to process the orders

Now, here is my question
Rather than contact this external server, is there anything that can be
placed (or used) on the AS/400 that will do this translation?

I hope what I wrote makes some sense

As always, any and all replies gratefully accepted
