TeraScript-Talk: Case
A lot of my code was written for Witango/FileMaker which is not case sensitive. These days we are using Terascript and Filemaker via JDBC. It's case sensitive. The way we've been handling it is by using a calculation field in the table to calculate the lowercase of the entered string, then when a string from Terascript is compared against it we use the @LOWER tag. Works, but is a lot of work to set up. I'm thinking there might be a built in method to switch or handle case sensitivity. Or is everybody doing it like this?

RE: TeraScript-Talk: Case
Wayne, Case sensitivity in SQL comparisons is a function of the database server. As far as I know, FileMaker does not have an option for case insensitive matching when doing comparisons via ODBC/JDBC. About the best thing I can offer from TeraScript’s perspective (and this would be a helpful option for any case sensitive database) is to simplify the ability to lower case a column by making it a simple checkbox option in the where clause. To extend that thought, a small menu to apply simple functions to columns (upper(), lower(), trim(), etc) might be convenient.
