Sensitivity to the case (upper or lower) of identifiers and data depends on the sort order installed on your Adaptive Server. Case sensitivity can be changed for single-byte character sets by reconfiguring Adaptive Server’s sort order; see the System Administration Guide for more information. Case is significant in utility program options.
If Adaptive Server is installed with a case-insensitive sort order, you cannot create a table named MYTABLE if a table named MyTable or mytable already exists. Similarly, the following command will return rows from MYTABLE, MyTable, or mytable, or any combination of uppercase and lowercase letters in the name:
select * from MYTABLE
