$NOCASE.STRINGS

 

Compiles the program using case insensitive string operations. This directive must appear before any executable statements in the program source and applies to the entire program module.

 

Selecting case insensitive string mode affects the relational operators (=, #, <, >, <=, >=), their multivalue function equivalents (EQS(), NES(), LTS(), GES(), LES(), GES()), the CHANGE(), CONVERT(), COUNT(), DCOUNT(), FIELD()INDEX() and SWAP() functions and the CONVERT, FIND, FINDSTR and LOCATE statements.
