My recollection is that it involved needing non-standard
case-insensitive LIKE comparisons to get transparent behavior with an
existing M$ Access app. So far, we were too polite to ask why one is
working so hard to maintain compatibility with a non-standard
interface, rather than writing the app to be portable. But I'll ask
now. Tim?

btw, it seems to be the case that problems such as these, which might
be interesting during slow times (from a theoretical standpoint at
least), are decidely less so during the final stages of a release
cycle.
