[mapguide-users] text layer with Capital Letter

If you are trying to capitalize them for labeling purposes, I don't
believe there is a way to do this in Studio at the moment.  Assuming you
have access to software that can edit shp files, you could add a new
field with the same definition as your existing street name field, then
populate the new field with uppercase values from the existing shape
names.  Or if youre comfortable, you could edit the DBF file like Jason
just suggested... (Id recommend making a backup in case you break
something) I guess I type too slow.

Good luck

Greg

I have a .shp file with info about street names. 

I want "translate" this names to capital letter: "Baker Street" instead
of
"BAKER STREET" with Studio 2007. 

What can I do?
