Thread: Changing Datatypes

Changing Datatypes

From

I recently migrating a Access 97 database into my PGSQL 7.02 database and
notice that some of my datatypes need to be changed.  What would be the
command for changing datatypes on columns?  I also had table names with
mixed case in their names, is there a way to make PGSQL not be case
sensitive on table/column names?

Remove the quotes around table/field names when creating them.
