CaseSens and CaseInsens

The CaseSens keyword can be used in OpenList queries to force a case-sensitive search of data. The CaseInsens keyword can be used in queries to force a case-insensitive search of data. These keywords can be used against indexed or non-indexed tables and columns to override the existing case sensitivity for queries defined in the environment.

Use the CaseSens keyword with any one of the selection keywords below to override the query case insensitivity in the user environment (Options-Configuration-Environment-Query-Query Processes from the Opening menu). This keyword will have no effect if the user environment setting is already case-sensitive.

Use the CaseInsens keyword with any one of the selection keywords below to override the case sensitivity setting, if case-sensitive search is defined in the user environment.

Note: For information about the general syntax of Limit and With clauses, refer to those keywords elsewhere in this chapter.
