IIRC there is some database (likely Microsoft but I don't recall for

SQL-standard spelling of this query would be
SELECT * FROM "PARTID";

The PG ODBC driver certainly isn't generating it. I dunno if there is
any existing code in that driver to do such a conversion --- try asking
on the pgsql-odbc list.
