Hi, Dave.
How do I peform a case-sensitive sort in Access
Try either of the following syntax:
ORDER BY StrComp(LCase([FieldName]), [FieldName], 0), [FieldName];
This will sort the lower case string values a to z first, followed by upper
case A to Z.
ORDER BY StrComp([FieldName], LCase([FieldName]), 0), [FieldName];
This will sort the upper case string values A to Z first, followed by lower
case a to z.
HTH.
