It is my understanding that the case of tables and column names should not be significant, and if you use the 'psql' front end it turns all table and column names into lower case. I like to use UpperAndLower case names so that table and column names are readable. What I have done today is to create a DB on my laptop in Microsoft Access then when I was in the office I exported the tables via ODBC into a Postgres database. The ODBC driver is preserving case, so the tables and columns are being created in UpperAndLower case. Now if I access the database from 'psql' or use 'pg_dump -d database > file' it all falls apart, because 'psql' converts all table and column names to lower case and then can't find them. Should the ODBC driver be doing the translation to lower case? I'm using ODBC driver 6.40.0001 with Postgres 6.3.2 from RedHat 5.1. -- Mark Himsley.
