I am trying to integrate MapInfo with a postgresql backend.
Problem:
MapInfo query uses both quoted and unquoted statements i.e.
"MAPINFO"."MAPINFO_MAPCATALOG" and mapinfo.mapinfo_mapcatalog
I have a schema called MAPINFO and a table called MAPINFO_MAPCATALOG.
I need to fold unquoted names to uppercase.

I really only need to change this behaviour for this schema.

I am trying to integrate MapInfo with a postgresql backend.

	I can not change the query statements that MapInfo uses to talk to the odbc
driver.
	I am in the process of changing to grass5 for all my map production.

I have a schema called MAPINFO and a table called MAPINFO_MAPCATALOG.
I need to fold unquoted names to uppercase.

How about creating a secondary schema as

CREATE SCHEMA mapinfo ;
CREATE VIEW mapinfo.mapinfo_mapcatalog AS
        SELECT * FROM "MAPINFO"."MAPINFO_MAPCATALOG" ;

Regards, Christoph

PS Please drop a note if it works.
