Eloy,

By default, names in Oracle are stored in upper case. To get mixed case, you will have to enclose the name in double quotes.

The following example demonstrates this: SQL> CREATE TABLE "Mixed_Case" AS SELECT * FROM emp;

Table created.

SQL> SELECT table_name FROM user_tables;

TABLE_NAME



DEPT
EMP
EMP_DEPT
Mixed_Case
