FTS can be used for case-insensitive searches.

From the Configuring Guide:

FTS solves many problems that users encounter when performing database
searches, including:

􀂄 Performing case-insensitive searches. Administrators can enable or disable 
case
sensitivity.

Subject: Full Text Search - where are we today?

Hi folks,

my users want a non-casesensitive search. We're using Oracle as DB. Is this 
something the FTS could do as it is today? I googled for some up- to-date on 
the FTS offered with ARS, but wasn't able to find it. My last status is the one 
from the RUG in San Francisco, where the FTS was presented as speeding up 
searches. The product manager said, they working on it, to make the search 
google like, where you can enter something in one field and it will find it for 
you wherever it is. I guess we haven't reach this stage of development yet. I 
was wondering if the casesensitivity issues where tackled in some way in the 
meantime.


Mark
