     Name
          strupr - Converts all characters in a string to uppercase.

     Syntax
          #include <string.h>

          char *strupr(string)
          char *string;

     Description
          The strupr function converts any lower case letters in
          string to upper case.  Other characters are not affected.

     Notes
          The strupr function is not part of the ANSI definition, but
          is instead a Microsoft extension to it, and should not be
          used where ANSI portability is desired.

     Return Value
          The strupr function returns a pointer to the converted
          string.

     Example
          #include <string.h> #include <stdio.h>

          char string[100] = "This Was a Mixed-Case String", *copy;
          main()
           {
                  copy = strupr(strdup(string));
                  printf("The result string is: %s\n",copy);
           } This program duplicates a string named string and uses
          strupr to convert all lower case letters in the copy to
          upper case.
