Steve,
I have one in the RPG ToolKit that wraps the QlgConvertCase API. It
is slightly complicated, but it does work great with national
language character sets. You can call it by passing a data structure
with the "to upper" or "to lower" flag set and it'll worok great. Or
you can use the one in my RPG ToolKit (www.rpgiv.com/toolkit)
