>>What I was getting at is engines that are case insensitive 24 hrs a day, 7 days a week, no options. Sergey pointed out that SQL Server is case insensitive using its default installation options, but you can make it case sensitive. So if you need it, you can have it. I was thinking you meant something that was case insensitive and if you want something else, tough! Do you know of any like that? Obviously, with data you have to have case sensitivity at times. Again, this was a different issue than what we were originally discussing and I think we both agree that you have to have case sensitivity in regards to data (maybe not always, but a portion of the data, at least).

Ok, Cetin, I think you'll want to restate your position. Explain to me how M$ Word could include a helpful feature like skipping words in ALL CAPS when spell checking if it couldn't look at the data in a case sensitive fashion. No one else here has supported the statement you just made, so I'll make another assumption and assume that you misunderstood what I was saying or perhaps mistated what you were saying.
