My office has just upgraded from IB 5.X to 6.X, and we have a problem.
Are there any workaround options for the case sensitivity that don't require recoding an entire application?
 
Are you sure that it has something to do with case sensivity? Interbase was always case sensitive. Maybe you have used a reserved word for a column name.
Check out the list of reserved words in Interbase 6.
I had a column named TYPE in IB 5, that hampered the conversion. After renaming the column in IB 5, no problems.

Check out which tables and columns are giving problems.

There were a few reserved words, but those fixes have been implemented. Our problem involves our search functions. Even with Dialect 1 it remains case sensitive and is forcing all caps when we create tables.
