StringUpper not working on a variable?

[TXTechie]

This is weird. If I use the following code, StringUpper works:

$PC = StringUpper(InputBox($ScriptTitle, "Enter the Computer Name:"))

However, since I have to check for @error based on the input of the InputBox, I had to move it until after the $PC variable was populated, which I figured would work the same, but it's not. If I use the following code, the contents of the $PC variable does not get converted to UPPERCASE characters:

$PC = InputBox($ScriptTitle, "Enter the Computer Name:")

If @error = 1 Then Exit

StringUpper($PC)

Can someone assist me with how I can convert a variable to all UPPERCASE characters?

Try

$PC = StringUpper($PC)

You have to assign the return string of the StringUpper to something before you'll see the results.

Return Value

Returns the string converted to uppercase.

$PC = InputBox($ScriptTitle, "Enter the Computer Name:")

If @error = 1 Then Exit

$PC = StringUpper($PC)
ConsoleWrite($PC & @CRLF)

Oh wow! Now I feel like a complete newb!

Thank you, UEZ & BrewManNH - of course that works!
