I am working with a mySQL database in which some column names contain hyphens. These have to be enclosed in backquotes (`table-name1) within SQL statements.
Problem: when generating its own SQL statements, mysqldump does not enclose these names in backquotes -- so when I try to restore a database from a dump file, I get SQL errors. Does anyone have a simple solution? If not, might future versions of mysqldump allow such fields to be backquoted? T.D.
