You can control the binder's sensitivity to case by coding the CASE option as follows:

CASE={UPPER | MIXED}

The case can be either UPPER or MIXED. When CASE=MIXED is specified,
  • The binder distinguishes between upper and lower case letters, treating two strings as different if their cases do not match exactly.
  • The binder does not convert any lowercase letters in names encountered in input modules, control statements, and binder options.
Binder keywords are always converted to upper case.

CASE=UPPER is the default value, causing conversion of all lower case letters to upper case during binder processing.
