If you create your objects like "TABLENAME", they aren't
case sensitive.

eg:

CREATE TABLE MyTable
can be used as:
MyTable - MYTaBLE - "MYTABLE"

CREATE TABLE "MyTable"
can be used as:
"MyTable" only

CREATE TABLE "MYTABLE"
can be used as:
MyTable - MYTaBLE - "MYTABLE"

Almost all more pro GUI tools allow you to set their GUI
to automatically uppercase everything you create when using
the object editors. Ours does as well.
