> How do I make a SAPDB case-insensitive?

What do you mean?

If you mean: "How do I match a value case-insensitively?"
Then there are two answers:

1) Don't, store the uppercase or lowercase version of the value and
   match that, this is good if you want to do large searches that need
   to be indexed.
I could imagine a case-insensitive index by using a special compare-function for strings:
for example "a" < "A" < "b" < "B" < "c" < "C" etc.

That allows to search for a string "aBc" case-insensitive by outputting all values in the interval ["abc";"ABC"].

The index still allowes search case-sensitive ... because "a"!="A" etc.

Any ideas, why this should not be implemented?
