My script creates the tables using Upper And Lower Case letters.

I can run sql queries using any case.

Why can the all powerful DB2 not return the field names as I created them in the result set?

All Caps is for dead head screamers. This is a new age of computing... we have a SHIFT key!

Took me a few minutes to figure out why I was not getting any data out of a specific field. I used fetch_assoc and $aRow[ 'Name' ] rather than $aRow[ 'NAME' ] .

I thought that 'i5_naming' => DB2_I5_NAMING_OFF was supposed to turn that off.

This is probably just a rant with no solution.
