 Hi,
  Well while moving from Mysql to POstgresql this was one more difference
: Case Sensitivity.
 The problem is in this query
 select * from table where name='Word'
 select * from table where name='word'

 Mysql  treated both as same but postgres does not..i appreciate that
 it is good but is there a way that 'Word' can be matched with 'word'?
 i mean my queries can specify whether to be case sensitive or not.
 is there any such provision in postgres?
 or is it always case sensitive?
 thanks
