Answer:
Well, <your field> is the field that you are trying to convert to uppercase.
TRANSLATE TRAN_STRUCTURE-<the field that you are trying to change to upper case> TO UPPERCASE.

I knew I should have locked this post as soon as the word abap appeared in the title;
anyway, Bella ;
I believe that maybe a first problem is that you are trying to do it in an update rule and not a transfer rule.
So, please do the following if you want more valuable help
1) give us the technical name of the infoobject that you want to translate to upper case
2) paste the WHOLE code where you want to do it, not only a short part of it
This way we will be able to read all the informations we need to give you a spoonfeeding answer.

Answer:
CH,Thanks for replying.
This is not the update rule.
I'm trying to put the conversion code in the 'transfer routine' of the infoobject and not the transfer rule. That way, I was hoping uppper case data for the infoobject will be converted to lowercase on all the infosources that has the infoobject reference. The code I have pasted below is complete. I have just replaced the infoobject to 0FIELD.
