Converts the value of a Unicode character to its uppercase equivalent using the casing rules of the invariant culture.
Namespace: System
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
Syntax

Public Shared Function ToUpperInvariant ( _

Parameters
- c
Type: System.Char
The Unicode character to convert.
Return Value
Type: System.Char
The uppercase equivalent of the c parameter, or the unchanged value of c, if c is already uppercase or not alphabetic.
Remarks
If your application is unaffected by the current culture and depends on the case of a character changing in a predictable way, use the ToUpperInvariant method. The ToUpperInvariant method is equivalent to ToUpper(Char, CultureInfo.InvariantCulture).
Use String.ToUpperInvariant to convert a string to uppercase.
