>I am forming a SQL select for a report on two tables which are in a multiple to multiple

>One list contains equipment and the other (engineering) drawings for the equipment.
>Each piece of equipment can have more than one drawing and each drawing can be for more than one
>piece of equipment.

>When I run the SQL I get drawings assigned to more pieces of equipment than they should.

>The drawing key is of a form "dr00000v" were "dr" is for drawing and the remaining characters
>can be any number, upper case or lower case character. Keys are assigned in sequence
>from a common table as needed.
>
>That is "dr000001" , "dr000002" etc.
>
>The problem extra drawings occur becuase VFP seems to believe that "dr00000v" and "dr00000V"
>are equal as well as others where the last character is different only in being a different
>case.

>Please try it. When I run the following from the command window I get .T. as a response to

>ctemp1 = "dr00000v"
>ctemp2 = "dr00000V"
