First of all, this has nothing to do with Java - this is caused by quoting
the identifiers when creating the table. I.e. you've created the table
like this:
CREATE TABLE "Student" (
"Id" ...
"Name" ...
);
in that case you have to quote the identifiers every time you use them. I
generally don't recommend it, in my experience it makes the db difficult
to use and error prone.
CREATE TABLE student (
Id ...
Name ...
);
and then you don't need the quotes at all.
But if you really need to use the quotes (e.g. if you can't change the
schema), then you can escape them in the query string, e.g. like this:
String sql="SELECT \"Id\", \"Name\" FROM \"Student\" ORDER BY \"Id\"";
