Hoping to find a way to convert entered text to all CAPS when a user leaves the input field. For instance, if a user types 'abcd', I need to display 'ABCD'.

Any thoughts?

My Product Information:
Acrobat Pro 9.1

You can use JavaScirpt's 'toUpperCase()' method.

From the Adobe Acrobat JS API Reference:

Quote:
Example
Change all keystrokes to upper case.

// Custom Keystroke for text field
event.change = event.change.toUpperCase();
