how to: case-sensitive equality comparison between variables


How to perform a case-sensitive equality comparison between two
variables:

def var a as char init "Progress Rules".
def var b as char init "progress rules".

if a = b then.... which will give you an equality match, but
or if a <> b then... does not take the case into consideration.

do:

if encode(a) = encode(b) then....
