Syntax Highlighting Capitalization

Is a way through the configuration files (or another method) to allow the user to type lower case and the result be a colored work which is uppercase or title case depending on the setting? i.e. select * from mytable where name like "john" SELECT * FROM mytable WHERE name LIKE "john" or Select * From mytable Where name Like "john"

You will need to handle the key down event and examine the word being typed. Below is an example of this matching the case with the items in the keyword list taken from the settings ini file of the edit control: private void editControl1_KeyDown(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs e) { ArrayList list = editControl1.GetKeywordList ("Keyword"); string temp = editControl1.GetWord(editControl1.CurrentLine,editControl1.CurrentChar); foreach(string str in list) { if(temp.ToLower() == str.ToLower()) { temp = str; editControl1.Replace(editControl1.GetWordLocationRange(editControl1.CurrentLine,editControl1.CurrentChar),temp); break; } } } Regards, Guru.
