It's ANSI standard behavior.

If you enclose the column name in quotes it will retain the case. However, forever after any reference to that column must also be enclosed in quotes and match the case exactly. I think you're just buying trouble doing this.

Hi,

Whenever I create a table Oracle converts column names to upper case. Is their a setting I can change to avoid this?

Thanks,

Peter
