Re: Quotation marks in queries

The easiest solution is just not to use caps or spaces in your table/object names, there is no advantage to doing so. People just need to get over the fact that having caps in a name make it easier to read.

My Test Table should be my_test_table, the naming makes no difference to the application using the table.

Same thing with ordering of fields in a table, it makes no difference other than for looks if the fields are in the order you want them
to be in.

It is much more of a pain to qoute your sql than it is to have it look nice.

Just my 2 cents on the subject.

You only need to use quotes in your SQL statements if your table names
in PostgreSQL contain any upper case letters.  PostgreSQL automatically
converts all of your SQL statements to lower case unless they're quoted.

As an alternative to quoting in VB (assuming you're using Access as your
FE), store your SQL in tables where you can quote it correctly instead
of having to use " & chr(34) & " or """" every time you want to insert a
quote in VB.
