Careful, FTS is only free on the newer pricing model/latest versions.   Check 
with your BMC rep if you are entitled to use it without additional charge.  You 
used to have to pay extra for it.  Nate.

Subject: Re: Case sentive In ITSM problem management

** The case sensitiveness is a limitation on the database.
Oracle by default is case sensitive and you need to change its configuration to 
make it case insensitive, but you need to recreate your indices.
You can do a search on this forum for more information if it is workable.
However MS SQL server is case insensitive, so your queries would work in either 
case.
With oracle I think you could use remedy FullTextSearch feature to run case 
insensitive queries for specific fields. And it is free feature to use.
Otherwise as Tauf has suggested you need to convert the data to uppercase 
before saving the record and any time doing a query, convert the user entered 
data to uppercase to use with queries.
With the newer versions of arsystem there is a type ahead feature you can 
enable case insensitive. See if it would be useful in your case.
