Case in-sensitive search or query

Hi,
I have made a form based on a table. It has one coulmn that has mix-case field(like filed is Title, and values of this field is 'Oracle Application Server 9i'.)
If i type 'Oracle Application Server 9i'in the field and click query button (or search button) it displays records matching that field. If some one enters 'oracle application server 9i' then it does'nt return any row. I want to get the same result as in first search or query. How can i get this functionality.
Thanks
Muhammad E.

This has been requested as an enhancement. Presently there is no option like any check box that does this.
I remember, there has been some answer posted for a similar query. Pls search this forum for that.
Thanx,
Chetan.

ATG search 2007 and case in-sensitive search sorting

Any one please tell me , how can we do the case in-sensitive sorting in ATG search 2007 ?
please find below my current sort properties to search engine for the alphabetical sorting of the products/skus :
docSortProp="displayName" docSortOrder="ascending" sorting="document" setSort="none" docSetSort="fulltree" sortProp="" docSortPred="numprop:descending:childSKUs.skuFeature:1|numprop:ascending:minPrice|strprop:descending:null:z|strprop:ascending:displayName:z" docSort="strprop"

Hi Sony,
There is no way in 2007.x. It was added in 9.x. See http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E26180_01/Search.94/ATGSearchQueryRef/html/s0513docsort02.html .

XMLSearch / case in-sensitive search in a text node value with XPATH

Hi everyone,
I was aggregating some XML files and queries for a search
engine. It is pretty easy with coldfusion XML functions BUT ....
I was looking around XMLSearch to do a simple text search
into nodes and I am stuck with it.
with something like that :
selectedElements = XmlSearch(myxmldoc,
'(/directory/user[contains(.,"#form.firstName#")])');
Without loop all the XML elements, I cannot put firstName
text nodes to lower-case, do a simple search into the directory and
get user entries.
Is it possible to do with XPATH something like that :
selectedElements = XmlSearch(myxmldoc,
'(/directory/user[contains(lower-case(.),lower-case("#form.firstName#"))])');
Thanks for your help.

When Do you think coldfusion will implement Xpath functions
as

Case in-sensitive search

Is it possible to configure the database to perform all searches
as case in-sensitve.
Ex.
select * from MyTable where MyField = 'Question';
should also return rows from MyTable where Myfield contains
'question', 'QUESTION' etc.
null

I am not sure about configuring the database, but you can avoid
case problems by coverting everything to upper/lower case:
select * from MyTable where UPPER(MyField) = UPPER('Question');
or...
select * from MyTable where UPPER(MyField) = 'QUESTION';

Case-sensitive search for equipments

Hello gurus,
when looking for certain equipments using F4 (program RIEQUI20), I can search for all equipments of a certain manufacturer (field HERST).
Unfortunatelly this search is always case-sensitive, i.e when I enter "BOSCH", equipments with manufacturer "Bosch" are not found and vice versa.
Is there any way to change this behaviour?
Thanks in advance
Alicia

Alicia,
Oops ..Sorry about that. I had misread it. You will not be able to accomplish the same in standard enhancement.You could remove the case sensitive check box on the HERST data element.But that would be considered A modification.That might however do the trick and save all the new contents in CAPS.The search help will then pick everything.(You may have to go into change mode on existing records and re save them for this change to be updated in DB )
However you could achieve the same, without modification and with a little bit of custom development.
What you could do is, create a Custom elementary search help(SE11) with the standard fields HERST(Input) and EQUNR(Output) fields .Create and Attach a custom Search help exit to the same by copying F4IF_SHLP_EXIT_EXAMPLE. In here modify the STEP SELECT to append a translated (Upper and lower case) selection condition to the query or a appropriate wild card search.Then select the same from EQUI.This should pull all your records. After testing this out , append this search help to the standard collective search help EQUI.
Hope this helps.

Case-Sensitive Search

Hi all,
I'm having a stupid problem. We use Robohelp 7.0 for Word.
When people search using the search tab (compiled version), they
seem to only find words according to the case (i.e., search for
Quickbooks and Quickbooks shows up, but QUICKBOOKS doesn't return
anything). Is there a way to turn off case-sensitivity?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Jeff

Search on a MIXED_CASE index is case-sensitive. Either re-index and build a case-insensitive index or consider using the ABOUT query operator.

How to make my program case - in sensitive?

Hi,
Iam writing a SELECT query in report for retrieving the address number by giving address details like street, city and post code.But my program is case sensitive such that if the user inputs either in Upper Case or Lower Case, it will not work.
For eg: suppose the city is Cape Town. If the user inputs like CAPE TOWN or cape town ( via Selection Screen ), then it won't work.
How can i make my program case- in sensitive?? please suggest..

This is possible. I have done something similar to it in my search programs.
For this we need to make a subroutine. In this subroutine we first need to convert the case into upper case using
TRANSLATE string TO UPPER CASE.
then prefix and postfix this string with &,
_and if this does not work then we have to break the srting entered by the user on basis of spaces and prefix and postfix it with &. _
Now pass this string to the query and it will definitely get the result.

Case In-Sensitive primary key (NVARCHAR2 datatype) in Oracle 10g

I have primary keys in my database which are of NVARCHAR2 type. By default data is inserted into these columns as case sensitive which means insertion of both 'ABCD' and 'Abcd' are allowed.
Can I change the settings in Oracle so that the primary keys work case in-sensitively? I wanted Oracle to throw an error if someone is inserting 'Abcd' and if there is already a record with primary key 'ABCD'.
Note: I am using Entity Framework.

Some ideas:
One method would be to place a before insert trigger on the data and upper it.
You could add another column, populate via a trigger as upper(), then build a unique index on this column.
See the following Oracle documentation on case insensitive searchs and comparisons

Case (in)sensitive file names

Hello,
In my program I have to know if the file names in the operating system the program runs on are case sensitive or not.
Example: If "words.txt" and "Words.txt" are the same files or can be different files (suppose they are in the same directory).
I don't want to do it by checking the OS name and comparing to a list of OS's that are known to be case (in)sensitive because I want my program to be dynamic and I don't want to change it every time new OS's come out.
Does anybody know how it can be done?
Thanks.

Yes, of course I can do that, but as you said I'm
looking for a more elegant way, like reading a
property of the OS or something similar. Thanks
anyway.1) It is not that much a property of the OS but of the fily system
2) There's a list of properties available to you in the System API. If none of these helps you, you're out of luck.

Case statement in a multiple query

Hi everyone,
This is my first time to use case statement in a multiple query. I have tried to implement it but i got no luck.. Please see below
set define off

I think you're getting the idea, but:
You're still selecting 2 columns in the (scalar) subquery. Did you read the link I posted for you?
"a) scalar subqueries - *a single row, single column query that you use in place of a "column"*, it looks like a column or function."
You must move that query outside, join to template.
Something like:

Search Results Query Text - Get all data, Exclude all list data except one

Hi Experts,
I have a situation wherein in the global search of our internal site, we have to display all results & restrict any list item except one list. Earlier we had restricted /Lists/ & People to be displayed in the results.
But in the new search results I have to display results from only one list along with other results (documents, sites, pages etc).
Below is the original query text entered in the Search Results Query Text editor
{searchboxquery} -contentclass:STS_List_Links
-filename:allitems.aspx -Path:/articles/Pages/default.aspx
-filename:DispForm.aspx -Path:/Lists/ -Path:person.aspx
I have tried various different queries with AND, OR operator. I have researched other blogs, sites over google. But unsuccessful. I am sure this is not a rare requirement. Need your expert help.
I have tried this query also...
{searchboxquery} (-filename:allitems.aspx -Path:/articles/Pages/ -Path:/Lists/ -Path:/PublishingImages/) OR
(+(+Path: /Lists/ArticleContent/ AND +filename:*.aspx) AND
-(-Path: */Lists/* OR -filename:*.aspx))

Vighnesh,
You should have success using the following:
{searchboxquery} -contentclass:STS_List_Links -filename:allitems.aspx -Path:/articles/Pages/default.aspx -Path:person.aspx ((-filename:DispForm.aspx -Path:/Lists/) OR Path:/Lists/ArticleContent/)
Two things from your original query were excluding list items from your results, your exclusion of file
DispForm.aspx and path Lists. By using "OR" in the above query, we're creating an exception to also allow items under
Lists/ArticleContent to be included in the results.

Sending search box query text as is to opensearch result source.

I have a Sharepoint online 2013 subscription. I created a Sharepoint site and configured a search result source, search result query for a custom opensearch backend. I want to pass the search query entered by user as is without any transformations to opensearch
backend,but everytime user enters search criteria SharePoint is transforming it to KQL before sending it to opensearch backend. Is their a way to bypass all these transformations and send search query as it is ?

Hi Ram,
Here is an article which describes how to integrate Bing to SharePoint (online) 2013 search:
http://www.jasperoosterveld.com/2013/05/integrate-bing-with-sharepoint-online-2013-search/
If you refer to the How the search system processes a query part in the article below:
https://technet.microsoft.com/library/jj219620(v=office.15)#HowQueryProc
You will find out that before "Sending the query to the search index or another search provider", search system will be "Parsing the query and creating a query syntax tree for internal use" and "Processing the query linguistically
by performing word breaking, stemming, spelling correction, and synonym expansion".
Sometimes we could put query words in Double Quotes, so that search system will treat them as an entity. If this still doesn't solve your issue, please explain more about your issue or make an example.

Disable character-sensitive search function in iTunes?

Hi all!
Since one or two iTunes updates the search function is character-sensitve. What at first sign seems to be useful turned out to be rather tedious for me, because I work a lot with spanish tracks. And usually they are not properly tagged, so by searching: "Añorándote" (wich is the correct ID-tag) I wont find anything if all tracks are tagged as "Añorandote" or even "Anorandote".
Is there any way to disable the character-sensitive search function in a way that searching "Anodorante" (which is way faster written than Añorándote) gives me all differently tagged tracks? I used this function a lot for tagging falsely written tracks, but now this doesn't work out anymore...

Hi, welcome to Apple Discussions.
The behaviour you & I both recall is absent in recent (Windows only?) builds and, as far as I can tell, there is no way for us as users to reinstate it. Hopefully it will be repaired in the next build, but it might be worth adding your voice for the return of the diacritical-insensitive search function at http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html
