Possible. I thought that the current doc for u_toupper() was reasonably clear: * This function only returns the simple, single-code point case mapping. * Full case mappings may result in zero, one or more code points and depend * on context or language etc. * Full case mappings are applied by the string case mapping functions, * see ustring.h and the UnicodeString class. Is it not? markus
