    Default Words with and without capital letters.

    Is there a way that I can Match the word "Index" with "INDEX" or "InDeX"?
    What would be most usefull?

    Hello Purple01!

    What do you mean by "Match"?
    Do you want to compare them and take "Index" and "INDEX" as equal Strings? Then you can use some of the String's methods to convert them in the same case and then compare them.

    Hope this helps.
