hramani 15 digit and 18 digit Ids with different cases (case Sensitivity)
Can I have the scenario where I can have two records with the same Salesforce Ids with different cases.
e.g.
a124T000000kDCa -- Ajay
a124t000000KDca -- Hari
The above is an example of 15 digit Id. Is this scenario possible ?
Is the same scenario possible with 18 digit Ids as well.
Please help.
e.g.
a124T000000kDCa -- Ajay
a124t000000KDca -- Hari

15 Digit Id
ID fields in the Salesforce user interface contain 15-character, base-62, case-sensitive strings.Two unique IDs may only be different by a change in case.(That means a124T000000kDCa,a124t000000KDca can be two different records)
18 Digit Id
18-digit, case-safe version of the ID is returned by all API calls. The 18 character IDs have been formed by adding a suffix to each ID in the Force.com API. 18-character IDs can be safely compared for uniqueness by case-insensitive applications, and can be used in all API calls when creating, editing, or deleting data.
If you need to convert the 18-character ID to a 15-character version, truncate the last three characters. Salesforce recommends that you use the 18-character ID.

Hope this helps...
* The scenario is possible, every record has its unique ID.
* No two records can have the same ID.
* Salesforce uses its own ID for all records regardless of what object it is.
* Record ID is a unique number generated by the Zoho Creator system for every record that has been added to the database.
eg- a124T000000kDCa -- Ajay
a124t000000KDca -- Hari
* This is possible Ids are case sensitive.
* There is a possibility that this case can exist.

Greetings to you!
I have gone through your Query.
15 digit case-sensitive version
15 digit ID is referenced in the UI
18 digit case-insensitive
18 digit id is referenced through in the API
e.g.
a124T000000kDCa -- Ajay
a124t000000KDca -- Hari
- This is possible Ids are case sensitive.
- There is a possibility that this case can exist.
