Hmmm.. That is definitely consistent with the function described in
Forta and elsewhere, but it still doesn't seem to work.

Here is the actual query I am trying to use

<CFQUERY NAME="GetData" DATASOURCE="HR">
        SELECT PERSON_LAST_NAME
        FROM TBL_PERSON
        WHERE PERSON_LAST_NAME LIKE '#Criteria#%'
</CFQUERY>

...and I should be able to substitute 

WHERE LCase(PERSON_LAST_NAME) LIKE LCase('#Criteria#%')

right?

But no dice...

Any thoughts?

Thanks all!

Use quotes around the criteria.

Jochem

Any yous guys know how to do dis?:

SELECT FirstName, LastName
FROM Names
WHERE LCase(FirstName) LIKE LCase(#Criteria#)

...meaning whether they search for "bob" or "Bob" I want to return
"Bob."

But this doesn't work...  Error code says 'invalid column name'

Sos I thought maybe:

SELECT LCase(FirstName) as LowerCasedName, LastName
FROM Names
WHERE LowerCasedName LIKE LCase(#Criteria#)

...but that dont work neither...

tanks!
