Building Windows Azure Cloud Service Applications with Azure Storage and the Azure SDK

Windows Azure and Azure Storage offers a new scalable and robust architecture that borrows much from the common feel of ASP.NET applications but brings plenty of new features as well. This paradigm shift from what has become traditional client-server architecture will offer new options to developers and headaches alike.

Detecting Characters

I have a SQL Server 2022 English default installation on a server. I want to detect if there are any upper case characters in rows and I have this code:

SELECT CustomerNameID,
       CustomerName
 FROM dbo.CustomerName
 WHERE CustomerName = LOWER(CustomerName)
Here is the sample data I am testing with:
CustomerNameID CustomerName
1              John Smith
2              Sarah Johnson
3              MICHAEL WILLIAMS
4              JENNIFER BROWN
5              david jones

8              LISA WILSON
