Case sensitivity for text fields

Does anyone know how to turn off case sensitivity for a text field??
Your help is appreciated.

Do you recommend another field type that can be used that does not use case sensitivity?
Thank you

Setting case sensitivity for text searches

I am trying to figure out how to set case sensitivity for text searches for Oracle. I am using 8.1.7 and the documentation keeps referring me to the Basic_Lexer object. Does setting the mixed_case parameter to 'No' remove case sensitivity for the index or is there something else I need to do?

Fetch data from IR to form in UPPER CASE format for text field items

Hello,
Can anyone please help with this issue. I have a IR report with form and I want to fetch the data to upper case when I go to the form level to edit the details from the IR report. I am using the Oracle APEX in built automatic row processing DML to update, create or delete the records. Is their any way, where I can convert the data to upper case whenever user creates a new record or updates the existing record using the in-built automatic row processing DML.
Please help.
Thanks,
Orton

Jari,
I have tried your option but no luck. The thing is the text is getting converted from lower to upper case when i navigate from report to form level. But I want to save the data to the database all upper case, even if the user enters data in lower case and this applies for both inserts and updates. Whenever i tried to create or update a record, all the data should be converted to upper case before inserting or updating to the database.
Please help.
Thanks,
Orton

Case sensitivity for comparisons

It appears that text comparisons on rules are case sensitive?
In other words the rule:
the cow gives milk is valid if
the cow's name = "Betsy"
will not be valid if the cow's name is "BETSY"...
Assuming that is correct, how do people handle case sensitivity for text fields in OPA? I don't see a toupper() for text.

It appears we answered our own question when it was pointed out that the example in developer documentation on extensions was for this very problem...

Eliminate printing Border for Text Field???

Is it possible to display border on the PDF and not print on the output for Text Field??? What settings and/or scripting I need to get this working? A sample form is really appreciated.

If you use the standard border (for example), you can use the JavaScript prePrint and postPrint for each field to make the border visible, and hidden. Here's how.
1.) Highlight Text Field in Designer.
2.) In the Script Editor, select the prePrint Event from the dropdown list on the top left. (This works in FormCalc or Javascript, although I tend to use JavaScript as the language in the right hand drop down)
3.) Type in (or paste) the following code:
this.border.presence = "hidden";
4.) Select the postPrint Event.
5.) Type in (or paste) the following code:
this.border.presence = "visible";
Now when you click print, it will make the outside border hidden, and when you cancel, the border will reappear. Now this will not make the 'Solid Box', or 'Sunken Box' of the text field hidden. The easy way to fix this, is set the 'Appearance' in the Object->Field palette to 'None'.
Cheers!

The volume has the wrong case sensitivity for a backup

Updated to OS X Yosemite 10.10.1 and when trying to restore my backup (using TM) into my iMac (27-inch, Mid 2011) get the following message: "The volume has the wrong case sensitivity for a backup."
Any help would be appreciated!

That's not how you restore.
Move your data to a new Mac - Apple Support

My Time Machine backup keeps failing. I get a message the "Volume has the wrong case sensitivity for a backup". Please advise.

You can change the case sensitivity of the sparsebundle.. but I really doubt the error is real.
See A8 here.
http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
The sparsebundle should have case sensitivity turned on.
I cannot even fathom how it could have changed.
Let me recommend before you start fooling around with the sparsebundle.
Do a full network start.
Power everything off.. start up modem.. wait 2min.. power up the TC.. wait 2min.. power up any other network gear like switches.. wait..
Now power up the computer and try it.
If the error is the same.. I would do a factory reset of the TC.. give it all short names, no spaces and pure alphanumeric. Then reset TM .. see A4 in the same reference as above.. and do a verify of the backups.. A5 above and try the backup again..
No luck..
Then erase the TC and start over.. it is sometimes necessary as TM does get itself in a knot.

How to Configuring case sensitivity for NFS on Windows Server 2012

Configure Case Sensitivity for File and Folder Names
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc725747.aspx
To configure case sensitivity for file and folder names using the command prompt
Open a command prompt.
To enable case sensitivity, type:
nfsadmin server [ComputerName] config casesensitivelookups=yes
But, "casesensitivelookups" is removed in Windows 2012 version.
Help Me~

Hi,
Sorry for the delayed response.
According to the following article, we still can use
nfsadmin to configure case sensitivity for Server for NFS in Windows Server 2012.
Nfsadmin
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc771599.aspx
Note:We
need to disable Windows kernel case-insensitivity in order for Server for NFS to support case-sensitive file names. We can disable Windows kernel case-insensitivity by clearing the following registry key to 0:
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\kernel
DWORD “obcaseinsensitive”
Hope it helps.
Best regards,
Frank Shen

Disable Case Sensitivity for Node Names

Hello everyone,
is it possible to dissable the case sensitivity for node names?
I have an import of ca. 40k records. The source system differs between small and capital letters.
DRM seems to not differ between small and capital letters.
Is there a workaround without usind different technical names for nodes.
Kind regards,
Pascal

There is nothing to do with in DRM, can you check with your DBA on what's the NLS_SORT and NLS_COMP settings are,ask them to check the below values.
NLS_COMP=LINGUISTIC and NLS_SORT=BINARY_CI
If nothing works out submit an SR:-)

Set the default border color for text fields?

My InfoPath 2010 text field borders are defaulting to white for some reason (which basically means invisible on a white form). Do y'all know if there's a way to set this somewhere? Drop-downs (for example) are still showing up as the light-grey.
Maybe I accidentally tweaked it but now I can't see where.

Hi
if you want the change color of all the field in new form,edit form and view form then share point designer can help you in that case.
Or you can user page layout in info-path form

Case Sensitivity for 8i 8.1.7

Hello everyone,
I have noticed after my wonderful install of 8i (8.1.7 EE) all of my tables, fields, and so on are upper case names. I know I can use the " to create/specify an object by its' case (say lower case instead of upper). When I run queries through an ODBC driver. My data is returned all in upper case (because all of my objects are upper?). Is there an option during or post installation that I can throw for case insensitive on all of my objects? When I create a new table using the UI tools and wizards. I want the default to be lower case not upper case. Even when I use the MS SQL 2k export wizard to oracle. All of my objects are upper case. I know during a MS SQL install you can select you case sensitivity option. I would like to know how to do this in oracle, thanks.

There is no case-sensitive option in Oracle that I know of. Unless you specify thing in double-quotes when you creaet it (eg. create table 'MyTable') everything in Oracle is stored in upper-case as far as the data-dictionary is concerned.

Validation for text field: Null and contains no spaces

Currently on APEX 3.2
I want to check 1 text field and 2 text areas to ensure they are not null and blank (hitting the space bar in the field) before submitting the page. How do I do both validations for on each field?

I created a validation with a type of 'Function Returning Boolean' and using the following code in the expression:
IF( TRIM( :P1_Text_Field) IS NULL
Or LTRIM( :P1_Text_Field ) != :P1_Text_Field )
THEN
RETURN false;
ELSE
RETURN true;
END IF;

Need a JavaScript to enable/view Multi-line option for Text fields.

Hello All,
I need a JavaScript to enable/view Multi-line option for all the Text fields in PDF Form.
Assume that I have a PDF form of Fields from F1 to F100 and it contains 25 Checkboxes, 25 Combo Box and 50 Text Fields. Now i need a javascript for which i need to enable Multiline for only Text Fields. So Is there any JS for which i can enable the Multiline option for only Text fields and not for ComboBox or Checkbox.

Dual Color for Text field

Hi
I want to display 2 and more data fields in one line and have created as text field which would appear as Heading on each page (centralised in line)
like
Name (Age)
Keith Roan (40)
Jeff Shane (30)
Peter Andrews (30)
Kamal Chawla (30)
Is there a way by which I can display name and Age in different colors and still keep the centralised setting for both as a SET.
1 way is to have them as different fields (name on left - right aligned and age-left aligned), but their position would change i.e The age would appear at same place always and Name would shift depending on the length and it would not truely be centralised settings.
Thanking you in advance
Kamal

Insert both the fields Name and Age on the report and right click>format field>font-->select the color
After changing the colors of both the objects now insert a text object and right click on Name field and cut it and edit the text object and paste it. Do the same for the other field Age and place it in the same text object.
Hope this helps!

For loop for text field

5 check boxes are A, B, C, D, E and 3 text fields are Text1, Text2, Text3.
If any check box is marked, corresponding value(A,B,C,D or E) will be goes into Text1, Text2 or Text3.
It may be output like this
Text1= A
Text2= E
Text3= C
I have placed a code under checkbox A: mouc up:
var aList = new Array("Text1.0","Text1.1","Text1.2");
for(i = 0; i < aList.length; i++)
if(this.getField("CheckBox4").value = "1" && this.getField(aList[i]).value=="") {
this.getField(aList[i]).value = "A";
I do not get check mark when click on check box and "A" value is going into all text fields- Text1.0=A, Text1.1=A, Text1.2=A.
What should I do?

Yes A, B, C, D, E are check box. When I replace to this.getField("A").value == "1", it does not work. I have placed in the On Focus. I am not sure where is the perfect.
Actuall issue is that there are 5 checkbox name A, B, C,D,E. and 3 text field named Text1.0, Text1.1, Text1.2.
If user check A, textfield automatically filled with "A" (into any one text Field of three text Field)
If user check C, textfield automatically filled with "C" (into any one text Field of three text Field)
If user check D, textfield automatically filled with "D" (into any one text Field of three text Field)
So output may be like this:
Tex1.0= A
Tex1.1= C
Tex1.2= D
again if user uncheck A, corresponding value will be removed automatically. How can I do this?
