I just exported (via myodbc) an old access database for my sportsclub to
mysql (the tables). The ms-access database application still works nicely on
the new linked tables in mysql. However, I'm now also writing a php based
client to use the database over the web and the problem is as follows:

They guy that developed the access database used `#' (comment character)
characters to name certain columns. i.e. "Person#". How can manually select
such a column in a mysql query (ex. via the mysql client)?  - since it seems
whatever i enclose the column name in, the rest of the query is interpreted
as a comment!
