you could try encasing the name with backticks:

CREATE TABLE `My Table`(`My Column` INT);

Subject: question about column names


Hi all:

How does one get away with creating a column name that
is more than one word -let's say a column named John
Smith?  I know John_Smith is an option but I'd like
two separate words.

Thanks
J
