TextInfo

Synopsis

This class is used to describe certain properties of the writing system in use by a culture. The properties of this class specify system-specific and standardized code pages for text, as well as the ListSeparator string (a “,” for the invariant culture). TextInfo defines methods that determine casing semantics per culture. For example, ToLower() returns the lowercase version of the specified character or string. The ToTitleCase() method capitalizes the first letter of each word in a string.
