Not capturing case sensitivity

In a specific field the data entered for my App needs to case sensitive.  I enter 1234!@#$abcdABCD and what it captures is 12341234abcdabcd.



Is there a way to enable the case sensitivity during capture?  I can go back and edit the file afterword, but I am just curious if there is a way to enable this during capture.

    Hi Chris,



    TestComplete keeps the letter case when capturing text input, so the behavior you described is unusual. However, I don't observe this behavior in Notepad when using TestComplete 8.60, so it might be specific to your application and environment.



    Please provide some additional information so that the dev team can investigate the issue:

    * TestComplete version, as in Help > About.

    * Windows version and bitness.

    * Let me know the type of the application are you recording against (.NET/Java/web). If it's a web application, tell me which browser you use.

    * Are you recording a keyword test or a script? Which scripting language is used in your test project?

    * Is the text input recorded as Keys or SetText? Also, if possible, please post the recorded test here.

    * Which control is used for data input? If it's a third-party control, let me know its vendor and version. Please also attach, if possible, a screenshot of this control in your application.

    * Does the control filter the entered text somehow (for example, it ignores special characters)?



    Thanks.
