Jose,
Thank you that was exactly what I needed.
I think one of the problems with DBIx::Class is that the documentation
and work is scattered among so many places it is hard to leap in and put
it all together.

Steve, I don't know what Gmail did to my reply, everything above "Show
quoted text" was deleted. Sorry about that.
Original reply was:
Steve, SQL::Abstract does quote columns and tables for you. It's just
that quote_char is empty by default. To change it from DBIx::Class you
probably need to have a look at this section from
http://search.cpan.org/~ash/DBIx-Class-0.08008/lib/DBIx/Class/Storage/DBI.pm#txn_do
<http://search.cpan.org/%7Eash/DBIx-Class-0.08008/lib/DBIx/Class/Storage/DBI.pm#txn_do>
quote_char
Specifies what characters to use to quote table and column names.
If you use this you will want to specify name_sep
<http://search.cpan.org/perldoc?name_sep> as well.
quote_char expects either a single character, in which case is it
is placed on either side of the table/column, or an arrayref of
length 2 in which case the table/column name is placed between the
elements.
For example under MySQL you'd use |quote_char => '`'|, and user
SQL Server you'd use |quote_char => [qw/[ ]/]|.
Hope that helps!
Cheers, Ze

Howdy,
I have a rather unique problem and I am unsure of how to fix this. I
am connecting to Oracle, one of the tables I HAVE to work with is
using
a keyword as the column name (I didn't do it!).
The way to get select statements to work is by single-quoting the
column call. Example:
SELECT
'me.level'
FROM
test me;
The problem is that DBIx::Class does not do the single quoting by
default and the single-quoting behavior, I don't believe, does not
work
for all databases.
Does anyone have suggestions about how this problem could be
addressed?
