Hi Helen,

dBase/localSQL can certainly search ignoring case.
The trick is to search in a version of the memofield content that is
either all UPPER or all lower.

Mervyn explains well the use of the available functions but seeing
extracts of your code will help us diagnose the problem. Any chance of
that?
