How can I convert one element in this array to uppercase as it is being written to a file?  I want dr(1) in Upper Case.  I tried
vbUpperCase(dr(1)) but it gives me an error.

CODE

Dim sw As New System.IO.StreamWriter("F:\myfiles\" & Format(Now, "MMddyy") & ".tmp")
  'Loop through each DataRow in the DataTable within the DataSet
  For Each dr As DataRow In myDataSet.Tables(0).Rows
    sw.WriteLine(dr(0) & "," & dr(1))
  Next

UCase(dr(1))

Oops, hit submit too soon.
UCase(dr(1)) would be the "classic VB" equivalent; you could also use dr(1).ToUpper if dr(1) is a string, or dr(1).ToString.ToUpper if you need to convert it to a string first.
