Hi,

I'm new to UniDAC. I'm using a TUniConnection and a TUniTable with a PostgreSQL database.

The TUniTable correctly list all the tables in the PostgreSQL database in the TableName property, however if I select one of the tables (in this case the table is called tMyTable), the error 'relation "tmytable" does not exist' pops up when setting the Active property to True.

Renaming the tablename in PostgreSQL to tmytable "solves" the problem.

What I don't understand is why the TUniTable component is able to list all the tables with correct case (that suggests UniDAC can use mixed case table names), but not use them...

kind regards,
Jan

Hi,

Maybe I need to rephrase my question.

Does UniDAC support mixed case metadata such as table and column names?

Why would I get the error mentioned in my first post when trying to use a mixed case table name even though the TUniTable component lists the tables in the PostgreSQL database with their correct mixed case?

I'm asking because I prefer not to have to change the case of all the tables in all databases...

To open the table with its name in the correct case you should either set the QuoteNames property to true or specify the name in double quotes.
