Oracle doesn't care about case sensitive in queries, Postgres too if you don't
quote tablename or columnname at creation time. If you use quote and upercase
at creation time you may quote it as well in you're queries. Function can be
lower
or upper case it doesn't matter at least in PostgreSQL 7.0.3.
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM "T_USERPREF";
select count(*) from "T_USERPREF";
Works well.
But you want columname returned as uppercase and you find the way...
