RE: double quotes column name
This is not a guaranteed method, but the fact that 'access' is stored in the data dictionary is an indicator that they used to force the name. Anytime you see lowercase, you can assume that they used . Of course, if the created it as ACCESS, my method won't work...

RE: double quotes column name
Harvinder, The columns created with double quotes show as such in user_tab_columns, i mean they show the name in the same case so... NameDisplayed Access - Access ACCess - ACCess and so on. and when u query the table use select Access FROM.

RE: double quotes column name
Harvinder, The column won't be created with a quotation mark as part of its name. Oracle won't allow it. All the quotation mark does is allow the creation of the column in the first place, circumventing the syntax rules. This is not a good thing. I'll lay good odds that it causes problems somewhere down the line. Every time that column is referred to you'll have to enclose it in quotes. It's a terrible design choice. Go back to them and make them change it. Actually, as they're a client rather than a supplier you should advise them to change it. =) Flouting Oracle's object naming rules never did anyone any good.

I guess this is not the case. 1. create table t(TABLE Varchar2(10)); 2. select table_name,column_name from user_tab_columns where table_name='T'; TABLE_NAME COLUMN_NAME -- -- T TABLE Even though TABLE is a reserved word it appeared in uppercase when user_tab_columns was queried.
