Because Coldfusion only looks for "Application.cfm" rather than
looking for TWO files, and to avoid any confusion should
Application.cfm and application.cfm both exist.

In windows, it looks for "Application.cfm" and doesn't worry about
case because althoug the filenames have case in them, searches are
case insensitive.

As for table names and such.. it depends on the database.

I know in MySQL with MyISAM tables, the table names are case
sensitive.  The field names aren't because they're not managed by the
file system, but the TABLES are because they *ARE* managed by the file
system.

BTW, that does NOT apply to MySQL on Windows.

I don't remember having a case problem with table names when we ran
Oracle on Linux either... probably because the tables are not in
separate files managed by the file system.

I'm not sure if case is relevant for InnoDB tables in MySQL on unix or not.
