RE: FN-FORUM: Oracle - Sensitive Bugger

date posted 7th August 2003 15:13

There must be some reason behind it; can't see why the world's most
reputable database vendor would do something just to be awkward!

It is a pain though... I'll have to do some string manipulating in
ColdFusion methinks.

Cheers anyway,
Rob

I've had a look around google and the general concensus is that this is
a limitation of Oracle.. MSSQL can work in case-sensitive mode.. But it
seems Oracle can't.. Seems a bit like a majorly stupid decision for
Oracle to make (IMHO)..

Cheers

Craig

Craig,

Isn't that article all related to Microsoft SQL Server? I'm working =
with
an Oracle database (which I'm new to!) and I remember reading somewhere
it's case-sensitive by default... hrm...

SQL is.. By default case-insensitive..=20

Have a look at

For a few tips/hints/tricks that might be of use to you..

Afternoon all,

Oracle it seems is a bit fussy when it comes to character case: does
anyone know how to 'turn-off' its case-sensitive tendancies, i.e.:

SELECT firstname, lastname from EmployeeTab WHERE lastname like
'stOKeS%';

Would return:

Robert Stokes

Thanks
