Class hierarchy
Description:

The class CX_DICTIONARY_CI corresponds to the class CX_DICTIONARY, with the only difference that when searching in the dictionary, no distinction is made between upper and lower case letters (case insensitive).

However, the dictionary retains the upper/lower case of the terms as they are entered.

CX_DICTIONARY_CI belongs to the family of dictionary classes.

Code example: 
CreatePersObject(CX_DICTIONARY_CI) -> dict, "D2" dict Put(name)
Prompt(RED, FONT(0), 235, 22, "Key:")
String(key, 306, 22, 300)

  SELECT: 0 GetValue 1 dict Call(Query) GetElement Dup if FillWindow  // find object in dictionary  
                                                                      // key is case insensitive
