I would like some scripts to make these jobs:

1) Change some or better all fields caps

example: THIS IS THE TITLE >> This it the Title

or something like that

2) Put the actors one for line


I read something about this, but not seen a real script.


Thanks,
Andrea

To change the case, put this between the begin/end of a new script :

SetField(fieldOriginalTitle, AnsiUpFirstLetter(AnsiLowerCase(GetField(fieldOriginalTitle))));

And to remplace linebreaks by commas (for examples) :

SetField(fieldActors, StringReplace(GetField(fieldActors), #13#10, ', '));

I did it - the first give me some "violation address" error, the second seems did nothing...

That is really not normal
I tryed both before posting and they were woring

You used the function Tools -> Scripting ?

I did it...

Did you try it on another movie list or when selecting only few movies ?

I need it because I have more than 1000 movies... if it were less, I did manually

I mean, does it happen with all movies or only with some ?
If it is not too big, could you send me your list so I can see if the problem occurs here too ?
(Which version of Windows do you have ?)

Hello,
I find out why you got the access violation error, I did some test and you got it when the field is empty, so you have to make sure that the field you want to change is not empty. I modify the script a bit to have the first letter of each words in the fields original title and translated title in caps :

program FindReplaceCaps;

begin
SetField(fieldOriginalTitle, AnsiUpFirstLetter(AnsiLowerCase(GetField(fieldOriginalTitle))));
SetField(fieldOriginalTitle, AnsiMixedCase(GetField(fieldOriginalTitle),' '));
SetField(fieldTranslatedTitle, AnsiUpFirstLetter(AnsiLowerCase(GetField(fieldTranslatedTitle))));
SetField(fieldTranslatedTitle, AnsiMixedCase(GetField(fieldTranslatedTitle),' '));
end.

Hope this help...

Ok, if it crashes when the string passed to an Ansi... function, it is a bug, I'll try to correct that
