I am looking for a way to store data in oracle database in mixed case. Instead of converting data on insertion to upper or lower case i need a way to find to do this automatically when the data is being inserted so it does not matter how its being retrieved. With the UPPER AND LOWER function I can only do this when the data has been inserted and then convert it into UPPER case in order to retrieve it in mixed case. is there an init.ora parameter or some kind of session set up command that can achieve that functionality. For instance in sql server the Case can be set up before hand. does oracle has any such functionality. thanks for any help in advance
