Couldn't you create a new index with the upper function?  Wouldn't that solve 
the index 'blow out' issue?

WHERE UCase(PositionName) LIKE '%#UCase(TextToSearch)#%'

Points to note:
-not all DBs are case sensitive in the first place (Oracle is)
-By using the UCase() funtion, you will most likely blow out any indexes on 
"PositionName" (slower query)
