peter.cook	Posted - 05/31/2006 : 06:38:36 AM Origin Version (Select Help-->About Origin): 7.5 SR6 Operating System: Win 2000 Hi, I have two functions below : int test1(string str1, string str2) { str1.MakeUpper(); str2.MakeUpper(); return(str1.Find(str2)); } int test2(string str1, string str2) { str1.MakeUpper(); return(str1.Find(str2.MakeUpper())); } which I test with TEST1(INTEGER,PATH\|MOLARUNITS\|STRING)= .... returns -1 TEST2(INTEGER,PATH\|MOLARUNITS\|STRING)= .... returns 7 I'm puzzled as to why.. Cheers, Pete

easwar	Posted - 05/31/2006 : 08:42:06 AM Hi Pete, Note that the MakeUpper() method does not return any value. It just sets the string to upper case. So in the test2 function, str2.MakeUpper() does not return a string as is needed for the Find() function to work. The compiler should have caught this one - we will look into why it did not - thanks for reporting this. Easwar OriginLab Edited by - easwar on 05/31/2006 08:49:56 AM
