the server always will transfor the names of the object to lower case
unless you surround them with quotes ("")
so if you say
CREATE TABLE TablE --> it will create a table called table
and if you say
CREATE TABLE "TablE" --> it will create a table called "TablE"
and in this case, if you try to select from table it will give an
error... it will give you an error even if you type TablE you have to
type "TablE" or always live with lower case object names...
