Hi, I'm using MySQL version 3.23.37 which works fine. However I am currently trying to convert a MS Access database to MySQL and some of the column names have embedded spaces i.e. "First Name". Now according to the manual MySQL supports quoting of identifiers (for the above reason), I cannot get it to work though.
MySQL is installed on Linux, and if I try to enter the following create table statement to the MySQL client, it objects to the first quote (either double or single quotes). CREATE TABLE TEST ('ID' INTEGER); while CREATE TABLE TEST (ID INTEGER); works as expected. I must be doing something stupid :), but I can't see it.
