Convert String To Upper,Lower & Title(Proper) Case in ASP.Net C#.Net & VB.Net Using TextInfo Class

By Anonymous
In this tutorial i am going to explain about how to Convert String To Upper,Lower & Title(Proper) Case Using TextInfo Class in System.Globalization Namespace in ASP.Net,C#.Net and VB.Net. Using the ToLower(),ToUpper() and ToTitleCase() static methods in the TextInfo class can be used to achieve this.


In my previous article i have explained about Build Products Comparision Table/Grid In ASP.Net , Store Custom Objects In Configuration File , Create Simple Mathmatical Captcha In ASP.Net , Visual Studio Keyboard Shortcuts , How To get data from WEB API , How To Create Your First WEB API Project and many articles in C#.Net,VB.Net,Grid View,Javascript,jQuery,SQL Server and many other topics.


Open the visual studio and create a new empty website. Add a web form to the website and add the below html markup in the aspx page.

<%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeFile="Default.aspx.cs" Inherits="_Default" %>

<!DOCTYPE html>

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head runat="server">
    <title></title>
</head>
<body>
    <form id="form1" runat="server">
        <div>
            <h2>Convert String To Upper,Lower  & Title Case Using
                <br />TextInfo Class in System.Globalization Namespace
            </h2>
            <table border="1" style="border-collapse: collapse;">
                <tr>
                    <td style="width: 150px;">Actual Text</td>
                    <td>
                        <b>
                            <asp:Label ID="lblActual" runat="server" />
                        </b>
                    </td>
                </tr>
                <tr>
                    <td>Upper Case </td>
                    <td>
                        <b>
                            <asp:Label ID="lblUpper" runat="server" />
                        </b>
                    </td>
                </tr>
                <tr>
                    <td>Lower Case</td>
                    <td>
                        <b>
                            <asp:Label ID="lblLower" runat="server" />
                        </b>
                    </td>
                </tr>
                <tr>
                    <td>Title Case</td>
                    <td>
                        <b>
                            <asp:Label ID="lblTitle" runat="server" />
                        </b>
                    </td>
                </tr>
            </table>
        </div>
    </form>
</body>
</html>


Now open the code behind file and include the necessary namespaces shown below if it is not already added.

using System.Globalization;
using System.Threading;

Then now i am creating object of TextInfo Class from the CurrentThread. And now i am assigning the converted string to each label. Below is the entire code.

C#.Net:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
// Include this namespace if it is not already there
using System.Globalization;
using System.Threading;

public partial class _Default : System.Web.UI.Page
{
    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        string myString = "ThiS iS SaMpLe TexT fOr TeStiNG";

        //Get the culture property of the thread.
        CultureInfo cultureInfo = Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture;
       
        //Create TextInfo object.
        TextInfo objTextInfo = cultureInfo.TextInfo;

        lblActual.Text = myString;
        // Changes a string to lowercase.
        lblLower.Text = objTextInfo.ToLower(myString);

        // Changes a string to uppercase.
        lblUpper.Text = objTextInfo.ToUpper(myString);

        // Changes a string to titlecase.
        lblTitle.Text = objTextInfo.ToTitleCase(myString);
    }
}

VB.Net:
Imports System.Collections.Generic
Imports System.Linq
Imports System.Web
Imports System.Web.UI
Imports System.Web.UI.WebControls
' Include this namespace if it is not already there
Imports System.Globalization
Imports System.Threading

Partial Public Class _Default
    Inherits System.Web.UI.Page
    Protected Sub Page_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs)
        Dim myString As String = "ThiS iS SaMpLe TexT fOr TeStiNG"

        'Get the culture property of the thread.
        Dim cultureInfo As CultureInfo = Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture

        'Create TextInfo object.
        Dim objTextInfo As TextInfo = cultureInfo.TextInfo

        lblActual.Text = myString
        ' Changes a string to lowercase.
        lblLower.Text = objTextInfo.ToLower(myString)

        ' Changes a string to uppercase.
        lblUpper.Text = objTextInfo.ToUpper(myString)

        ' Changes a string to titlecase.
        lblTitle.Text = objTextInfo.ToTitleCase(myString)
    End Sub
End Class

Now if you run the website the code will convert the string to different cases and bind it to corresponding labels. Below is the sample output.

C# Extension Methods Example

By
In this article i am going to explain about Extension Methods  with example. Extension methods enable you to "add" methods to existing types without creating a new derived type, recompiling, or otherwise modifying the original type. Extension methods are a special kind of static method, but they are called as if they were instance methods on the extended type. For client code written in C# and Visual Basic, there is no apparent difference between calling an extension method and the methods that are actually defined in a type. If you do implement extension methods for a given type, remember the following points: An extension method will never be called if it has the same signature as a method defined in the type. Extension methods are brought into scope at the namespace level. For example, if you have multiple static classes that contain extension methods in a single namespace named Extensions, they will all be brought into scope by the using Extensions; directive. ...
