database table and field naming conventions
Hi.
Is there a reason that all table names and column names are written in
capital letters?
Does something speak against defining new tables in lower case?
(database dependencies, etc.)
Best Regards.
Joachim

Anyway, SQL is case-insensitive. At least according to the specification...

Just convention AFAIK. Lengths need to be less than 30 chars for Oracle.
