Subject:      Change the uppercase VALUE OF VARIABLE A
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"

I have variable  A  and its values can be: Common common  Sepated  sepated .
But in fact, Common and common are the same thing.
I cannot go through all the vaiables that have same problem.
Is there way to change  the values for uppercase or lowcase?
I know, I can write some thing like:

if A='common ' then Aa='Common';

But this force me to change the name of variable and write many code for
each variable.

Thanks a lot and have nice week-end.
