VB, thanks for that. There would be more than one workaround; I asked the Informatica people to perform the LOWER function so the data will load into the oracle table that way.

HI Drew,

You can create a view (with in oracle) of the table\view using an SQL
statement. In SQL you have the UPPER\LOWER functions with that you can
manipulate the data.

Use the new view (with in oracle) to create the remedy view form, this way
you will use the SQL functions to get what you want.

Hope this helps.

Thanks,
VB

Subject: View Form upper/lower case question

Hello everyone,

I have some data in an external db that is all upper case. Would there be
a way to display that data in a View form as lower case?

I'm actually federating data where I have one View form that holds a
few table fields that also come from view forms. The first table's data is
related through the initial View form, and as I go along, the next table
is related using data in the last table field's column. Clear as
mud, I know, but that's where the mismatch occurs.

So, I need to either see lower-case data in my initial view form, or I
need to be able to apply the LOWER function on a table field column. Is
this possible?

Thanks in advance.
