I already replied directly to her last week. However, so many of you seem to
be missing the boat on the EASIEST way to do what she is asking that I thought
I should also post the answer to the group. There is no need to transfer the
file to any other platform; no need to write a script program; no need to use
anything other than the same GCG package that she created the sequence with.
Merely run the GCG utility REformat with its /UPPer option; that's all it
takes! (VMS conventions listed above, caps are minimum command required.)
Good day all, Steve T
