Hi,

I m trying to take backup of data of a particular table using pg_dump.
I used double quotes for table name but output is : 
pg_dump : no tables were found.

Command used : 
-h localhost -p 5432 -U postgres -W -F p -a -t '"TestTable"' -f DbBackup/BackupTableActions.sql TestDataBase

This problem only shows when there is a upper case character in my table name.
Please Help

Thanks & Regards 
Piyush

Hi
You can try -t '"TestTable"' or -t \"TestTable\"
