Fast Binary Search Not Ignoring Case



Hello List:

I have fast binary search working fine on a MV created index file.
However, it does *not* ignore case (as it seems it should).

Example:
In products.asc.itemno file are found these entries:
E58e    7243
E58g    7251
E58h    7258
E58k    7241
E58m    7242
E58n    7403
E58p    7249
E58q    7256

Searching for "E58" shows all of them. (Upper case "E")

Searching for "e58" I get "Sorry, no matches for e58. "

Have also tried:
<INPUT TYPE=HIDDEN NAME=mv_case VALUE="no">
even though this should not be necessary, since default is "no".

Here is the search code:

<FORM ACTION="[process-search]" METHOD=POST>
<INPUT TYPE=TEXT NAME="mv_dict_look" SIZE=6>
<INPUT TYPE=hidden NAME=mv_dict_limit    VALUE="-1">
<INPUT TYPE=HIDDEN NAME=mv_search_file VALUE="products.asc.itemno">
<INPUT TYPE=HIDDEN NAME=mv_return_fields VALUE="1">
<INPUT TYPE=HIDDEN NAME=mv_substring_match VALUE="yes">
<INPUT TYPE=HIDDEN NAME=mv_matchlimit VALUE="10">
<INPUT TYPE="image" HEIGHT="18" WIDTH="25" BORDER="0" NAME="search"
VALUE="Go" SRC="go.gif">
</FORM>

MV 3.14, Sun OS.

Any ideas?
