Hello,
IMHO it isn't function for frontend (ODBC) but it's for backend
(PostgreSQL). And PostgreSQL support ILIKE which do what you want.
In other way you can do in Delphi something like that:
insert into logins .... VALUES (...,UPPER(login),...)
and then
select * from logins where "Logins"."Login"=UPPER('rhurst')
(I'm not sure about UPPER and now I can't get help fo postgres)
