toUpperCase() { [native code] }! From this code: var promptUser = prompt("Provide a string

From this code... var promptUser = prompt("Provide a string"); var userReplyToUpper = promptUser.toUpperCase; userReplyToUpper += "!"; alert(userReplyToUpper); document.write(userReplyToUpper);

..I am getting : "function toUpperCase() { [native code] }! " instead of it displaying as it should

Please help!
