Thread: PSQLODBC case insensitive

PSQLODBC case insensitive

Hi folks
 
I'm accessing my PostgreSQL server from Windev (a french development tool) through the ODBC driver. I created the tables without quotes, so it doesnt if I execute this:
 
SELECT column FROM table
or this:
SELECT CoLuMn FROM tAbLe
 
But when I put the tables and columns names in Windev on lowercase I can access without problems. If I change one or more letters to uppercase I get an error.
Seems like the driver is building the statements like this:
 
SELECT "CoLuMn" FROM "tAbLe"
 
So the server cant find the tables and columns. Thas what I think. I'm I wrong? If not, is that a way that I can make the ODBC driver build the statements without quotes?
 
 
Sorry for my bad English.

Where have you created the tables? Could you try create new one with
logs enabled to see what SQL command is executed?

Sorry, I don't understand what's the problem.

What does psqlodbc.log or mylog say (SQL statements)?

I was wrong, Im not accessing through the ODBC driver, Im using ODBC access via OLEDB.
I did an example accessing directly through the ODBC driver and it worked fine.
I guess it is the OLEDB that is making the confusion.

Sorry for the trouble and for my bad English again.
Thanks anyway
