Hey Ronald,

As Shane mentioned 'upper case' is not part of Applescript's base syntax.

The Satimage.osax has some case functions:

 set myVar to "hello"
 set theResult to uppercase myVar

It supports 'uppercase' and 'lowercase', and you can fudge title-case and sentence-case using regular expressions.

Jon Pugh's SmartString object does upper/lower case:

There are also some handlers out there that do a fine job - such as:
