Search Criteria case sensitive when ... 

I used FP2003 to connect MS Access DB. In MS Access some of the datasource are static (import from .xls) and some dynamic (via ODBC to Oracle db). When I create a FP db template using Database Interface Wizard and create search criteria, the search criteria that are using ODBC is case sensitive, meaning user must type EXACTLY to show result. Is it possible to make the search filed not case sensitive?? The one using static source is NOT case sensitive by default.

I have tried to convert the back-end and convert the field to UPPER(field_name), then I create uppercase style on the search field. Well...now the search field convert to uppercase and getting result but in some instance when the 'Caps Lock' key is turn off I do not get result. It appear the css style, even thought it's converted search text to uppercase, it has no affect on the database side. Sorry I understand this is very confusing.

If you are connecting to a database server through ODBC the server configuration determines whether it is case-sensitive or not. Change the setting at the server.
