Hi

This isn't really the best list for this but make sure that your object
names in your sql queries are quoted if they contain mixed case letters,
or any non-alpha characters other than underscore e.g.

SELECT * FROM "Table Name"

Better yet, make all the table names lower case with no characters other
than _
