I have tables with different case in them, for example Customers and
CustomerID is a column in that table. When I try to access the table or
column in either a php script or psql is converts everything to

lowercase

and then I can't use them...why! Doesn't Postgres support case? I

can't

If you want to use mixed case names place them in double quotes and
postgres will leave the case the same. However, you'll always need to
use the double quotes in order to find the tables/columns/etc...

Hey Josh,

Try using '"' around the names:

SELECT * FROM "Customers" WHERE "CustomerID" = 42;
