Newbie collating+memo questions

We are porting a FoxPro application to Oracle7. It runs against an SQL-Server database and
we would like to use as much of the current SQL as possible. There are a couple of problems
we've run into that I would appreciate some expert advise on.

  1. The current application uses a case insensitive collating sequence. Is there such a thing in Oracle?
  2. The current app uses memo fields extensively. Is it true that there is a limit of one memo field per table in Oracle?

Cheers and thanks for any help.
