Not sure that I'm the first to uncover this, so forgive me if I couldn't find it in other postings...

Using 'Beginning VB.NET', I'm stumped on the Chapter 5 Case Sensitivity demo - not only does my code not function, but the downloaded demo doesn't, either. Is this something no longer supported in the .NET Framework, or did I just overlook the obvious?

Could you just help—just a bit—by telling us what code doesn't work, and what the behavior is when you try to run it?

Though this site is sponsored by WROX, individuals are answering question, and not all have all WROX books at their disposal.

Specifically, I'm working thru the portion of the demo that syncs the hashtable by converting all text to lower case... in both my code and the downloaded version, I enter and email address in mixed (or all) uppercase and get a message box stating that the email address doesn't exist. I assumed the point of the exercise was to show that we'd eliminated the case sensitivity requirements for this section.

[u]What</u> demo?

I don’t have this book, so I don’t know what the code looks like.
Post the code that doesn’t work, OK?

I just have to take your word on the point of the exercise, having never seen one line of it...

I can only assume that you are referring to the VB function "ToLower" from the subject of this thread.

In .NET strings have a method 'ToLower()'. This works for me.
