Anyone else been stung by the odd-handling of 'U' fields in Image databases?
Seems if you Dbput a buffer with 'U' fields in it, the data gets put into the
database in the case (upper/lower) which it appears in your buffer. When you
Dbget it back however, your buffer presents you with uppercase data.
 
Perhaps that wouldn't be so bad, except that if the field is also a search
field, Dbfind using the upshifted data fails...
 
What fun...
