Hi,  
Have a markdown element.  
The data source for which is an essql statement like --\>

> SELECT \* FROM "myJunkIndex" WHERE itemName = 'CategoryA.1' LIMIT 1

In markdown element I display the value of one of the fields in the filtered row(from essql) --\>

> {{#each rows}}  
> {{itemInfo}}  
> {{/each}}

In the above example {{itemInfo}} expression evaluates to a value like "123 x 678 abc"

I was looking for a way to:

1. Have the value displayed as an upper case value. Example: "123 x 678 ABC"
2. Also in a separate markdown element with similar data was looking for a way to process the string to only show part of the string. Example: "123 x 678"

Any pointer/examples of how this could be done.  
Thank You
