I didn't read every contribution about "Aplescript for changing case", but IMHO when I need to use string routines written by English-North American programmers, many times diacriticals chars are forgotten.
Not only Italian or French uses a lot of accented chars, but also they are useful in library catalogs all over the world.
Thanks... Stefano


True. The wonderful OSAX RegEx Commands however does handle accented characters correctly. And its fast. Free and available from <http://www.lazerware.com/software.html>. (It does not work on system 8.5 thru 8.6.1)

change to UPPER:
REReplace theText pattern ".*" with "\\u&"

change to lower:
REReplace theText pattern ".*" with "\\l&"
