Hello Charles -
Yes, of course you are right, and we all know this, including Steve, who is working long hours creating a
brand new database-style foundation for SignPuddle 3, that will fix this problem, plus move us into the modern era of smart phones, iPads and so forth…so Steve and I just had a meeting about it this morning. He hopes to have SignPuddle 3 ready in about a month, and one of the most welcome features will be to search without case sensitivity!!
We will keep you informed -
Thanks for your patience everyone -
Val ;-)

How long before this bug gets fixed? A lot of the interfaces automatically capitalize the first letter or force all caps or lower case. That does not help in finding words when one is typing ordinary text. So you show up with false negatives when you are trying to use the translator. I don't know if Delegs can work beyond that barrier, and this is a serious flaw.

Hello Melinda!
Thank you for this message. Yes…I went to your exact link below, and it works for me…
But I think I know what is happening!
Right now, SignPuddle software is "case sensitive", so that is my fault to tell you to type HELLO with all caps - instead you have to type the words
without the capital letters…so instead type:
hello
all lower case letters...
Does that work for you?
Val ;-)
