2. starting_position, type NUMBER. This is the starting position in the text from which the characters has to be converted.
3. end_position, type NUMBER. This is the end position. The characters including the start position and up to and including the end position will be converted to lower-case.

Example

Note that the construction @ ( ) around the function means that the result of the function is displayed in the text. This construction must be used in a text part of a model document. The switch from ITP mode to text mode in a model document is made with the # characters. An ITP model document starts in text model, the #BEGIN makes the switch to ITP mode.

Note

The setting EnhancedUnicodeSupport in the ITP/Server Administrator can be used to map the function lowercase2 automatically to the function lowercase_of_characters. Refer to topic Enhanced Unicode support for more information.
