Hi Alban,
If I do:
select * from SourceCategory
pgAdmin gives me an error: ERROR: relation "sourcecategory" does not exist
If I do:
select * from "SourceCategory"
It works OK.
As Richard mentioned, it's because table was probably created with CREATE TABLE "SourceCategory".
I was not sure about this because I had no control over creating the tables.
S pozdravom / Best regards,

What are you trying to fix that you don't just write SELECT
Column1,Column2 from MyTable ?
Postgres understands that fine, why do you want to quote those
identifiers? Maybe your application code is case-sensitive with
regards to column (and maybe table) names?
