my code reads:
if variable1 = "excluded" then
call abc
else
call def
end if

my problem is 'variable1' is typed in by users and can be 'Excluded',
'EXCLUDED', and other combinations of caps and lower case letters. I want
to include any and all combination of upper and lower case letters, as long
as the spelling is correct. I am sure there is something I can wrap around
'variable1', but I don't know it. Thanks, Mike Allen
