IIRC there is a setting in my.cnf that will automatically lower case table names. To turn it off you have to set it to 0 --lower-case-table-names=0 I think that the default setting is to lower case table names... It was a while back so forgive me if I am hazy on the details. More details can be found here: http://www.heidisql.com/forum.php?t=667#p3653 http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/identifier-case-sensitivity.html The way I got a round it was to either do a search and replace and lower case the table names in the code or to change the table names in the database using a MySQL GUI. Again, I forget the details, I was in a bit of a rage at the time. ;) HTH G!
