Search functions that are not case-sensitive

The SQL search functions UPPER, LOWER, and INITCAP support GLS. They accept multibyte characters in character-type source strings and operate on them.

The returned data type is the same as the type of the source string:

UPPER converts every letter in a string to uppercase.
LOWER converts every letter in a string to lowercase.
INITCAP changes the first letter of a word or series of words to uppercase.

For complete information about these search functions, see the HCL OneDB™ Guide to SQL: Syntax.
