Harvinder,

The columns created with double quotes show as such in user_tab_columns, i mean they show the name in the same case

so...

Name Displayed
"Access" - Access
"ACCess" - ACCess

and so on. and when u query the table use .... select "Access" FROM.....

Hi,

One of our clients has created a table with column name "access" since access is reserved word , they use double quotes..... but when i query the table user_tab_columns it is still showing column name as access and not "access"........
how can we know that this table is created with "" column name......

Thanks
--Harvinder

SQL> select table_name,column_name from user_tab_columns   2 where table_name='FF1'
  3 /

TABLE_NAME                     COLUMN_NAME

------------------------------ ------------------------------
FF1 access
