Sending text in uppercase to input box

[kpu 1]

I'm having issues sending text to an input box in uppercase. Even if the text is in uppercase, it changes it to lower case... I'm sure I'm just missing something small.. but any help would greatly be appreciated.

Here's my code. You need a Text File called "temp.txt" with Four lines in it:

#include <GuiConstants.au3>
Dim $temp, $file, $replace, $line
;-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
AutoItSetOption("TrayIconHide", 1)
;-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
$script_title = "Gui app"
GuiCreate($script_title, 266, 120, 430,346)
GUISetFont(12, 400, "", "Arial")
$txt_pcname = GuiCtrlCreateInput("Text here", 8, 32, 249, 29)
GUICtrlSetLimit(-1, 14)
$btn_findit = GuiCtrlCreateButton("Find It", 56, 64, 97, 25)
;-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
GuiSetState()
While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    Select
        Case $msg = $btn_findit
            GUICtrlSetState($btn_findit, $GUI_DISABLE)
            $ws = GUICtrlRead($txt_pcname)
            $temp = "temp.txt"
            $file = FileOpen($temp, 0)
            If $file = -1 Then
                MsgBox(0, "Error", "Unable to open " & $temp)
                Exit
            EndIf
            $line = FileReadLine($file, 1)
            SplashOff()
            If $line = "Nothing Found" Then
                MsgBox(16, "Warning!", $line)
            Else
                $line = FileReadLine($file, 4)
                $line = StringUpper($line)
                ClipPut($line)
                MsgBox(32,"",$line)
                MsgBox(32,"","found the following information:" & @CRLF & $line)
                GUICtrlSetState($btn_findit, $GUI_ENABLE)
            ;-->moved upClipPut($line)
                FileClose($file)
                WinSetState($script_title, "", @SW_SHOW)
                ControlSend($script_title, "", "Edit1", ClipGet())
            EndIf
    ;---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
        Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            ExitLoop
        Case Else
        ;;;
    EndSelect
WEnd
Exit

Why use controlsend instead of GuiCtrlSetdata?

[Valuater 131]

i cant test it ... but maybe this will work??

MsgBox(32,"","found the following information:" & @CRLF & (StringUpper($line)))

and

ControlSend($script_title, "", "Edit1", (StringUpper(ClipGet())))

good luck

I am using controlsend. One line up from the "EndIF"

ControlSend($script_title, "", "Edit1", ClipGet())

Valuater,

I'm trying your solution now.

Thanks to both of you for the quick response!
