How can you force characters entered in a text control to be converted to
upper case. Is there a style that can be defined to do this?
Thanks in advance.

You should use a VerifyListener to look at each keystroke and change it to
uppercase if needed. For an example of using a VerifyListener see
http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/org.eclipse.swt.sni ppets/src/org/eclipse/swt/snippets/Snippet19.java?rev=HEAD&a mp;content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup .
Instead of setting the event's "doit" field value (as the example does), you
should update the event's "text" field value to the character(s) that should
be inserted into the widget.
