Hi,

maybe this problem isn't originated in PEAR, but in pg itself.
Postgres folds everything to lowercase except one within "" (doublequotes).

So, if you - ie.: in psql:
    psql=# CREATE TABLE veRYMixedCAse (NetCode integer,...);
then actually you will create a table named 'verymixedcase'.

In PHP (PEAR actually) you need to refer to this table and its columns
in lowercase.

You may run psql and execute:
\dt        -- to figure out what names to be given to your tables
and then
\d NetworkTab or \d networktab -- and what names of the columns have
