  2. RE: Relation XX does not exist

    At the psql prompt you must put double quotes around table names that need
    to be case sensitive...
    
    Can you do
    	SELECT * FROM "jobDetails";
    
    
    respectfully,

    jobdetails. I don't find it hard to read, and prefer to use underscore
    strategically, rather than to separate everyday words.
    
    Typing all the quotes and shifting seems like way too much work, and opens
    some confusions with different clients.
