Hi,

I would guess that 'user' is a keyword that the parser doesn't like. 1.2.0 used to blindly quote everything which many
peopleobjected to. 1.3.60 only quotes identifiers with characters that aren't [0-9] [a-z] or _. I will need to look at
checkinga list of reserved words as well. In the meantime, you could manually type: 

select * from "user"

In the SQL window.

Regards, Dave.
