Yes - you simply load a case-insensitive sort order, via sqlloc (on unix, don't know what the program is called under Windows). However you should be aware that this will make the entire server case insensitive - i.e. for *all* string comparisons.

Just to add to what Michael wrote -- with a case-insensitive character set, you can still manage to do case-sensitive string comparisons in your SQL statements, but it isn't pretty.
