I’m currently working on a major new version of the datatool package. This may take a while. Please be patient. (Experimental version available for testing.)

Summary Provide commands to display uppercased dates

Sign in to subscribe to notifications about this report.

Description

Currently, \MakeUppercase cannot be used because it needs expandable commands and datetime's \displaydate and the like aren't expandable. Hence, it could be nice for datetime to provide macros such as \displayuppercasedate that display date uppercased versions of dates.

MWE

No mwe.tex

Evaluation

This is not achievable in datetime.sty as the underlying \formatdate that governs the date style is robust. However, this ability is available in datetime2.sty which replaces the now obsolete datetime.sty as datetime2.sty makes commands like \today expandable.
