The problem is that the column doesn't exist.  Just like the error message
says.  Without some more information (such as the table definition) I can
only speculate on exactly why that is the case, and my speculation is that
you created the table with the column names in uppercase and pgAdmin
preserved that.  PostgreSQL is case-sensative, so try matching the column
name exactly and putting "" around it.  If that doesn't work, provide some
more information in your question.
