UPPER and memo fields

Hello,

I need to check with an SQL query for a text string in a memo field of
a dbf table. This should be done not case sensitive.
However, SQL UPPER() seems not to work with memo fields:

  Select......  Where UPPER(table.memofield) LIKE '%SEARCH EXPRESSION'

This does not work.

Any workarounds?

Thanks
Jens
