I recently migrating a Access 97 database into my PGSQL 7.02 database and
notice that some of my datatypes need to be changed. What would be the
command for changing datatypes on columns? I also had table names with
mixed case in their names, is there a way to make PGSQL not be case
sensitive on table/column names?

Remove the quotes around table/field names when creating them.
