I need to make a test for a text entry string that includes capital as
well as lower case letters.  As it is now, the test I have forces lower
case and the test is done in all lower case.  See the following example.

if Find("i live in ceasar's palace.", TempString) then
  ResponseString:= "How often do you gamble?" ^ Return

The user of course can enter upper or lower case.  The sentence samples
the user is shown are in both cases.  In testing my piece I found that
since the user is not forced to use capital letters when appropriate
they type all lower case.  I want to force the user to enter the
following:

I live in Ceasar's Palace.

How can I force the students to use upper and lower case as they would
in a regular sentence?

Thanks.
