[C++] Upper case string to lower case string

[gamehead200]

Is there a way to convert an upper case string and/or a string with upper and lower case letters to a string with just lower case letters?

Is that a function?

yes, called like such: do_lowcase(text);

the idea is to use tolower anyways.

I tried using tolower out of a function (within the program), but it wasn't working for some weird reason...

I'll try this and let you know!

20 C:\DOCUME~1\Michael\Desktop\C__PRO~1\CHARAC~1\main.cpp cannot convert `std::string' to `char*' for argument `1' to  `void do_lowcase(char*)'

Awww, crap... Did I mention it had to be a string? Calling the string doesn't work with do_lowcase(sent); ...
