Re: Uppercase to lowercase trigger?
What if you created separate tables with the fields in uppercase, either with different names or better yet the same names and a different schema? It seems you could put triggers on those tables, and have your trigger translate the field names and make the updates to the real tables instead.
Seems like a lot of work, though, that could be avoided if you could get your app to drop the quoting of field names, and have it automatically fold to lower case...

verifies names and you can call this function manually when you do
some changes, or you can call this function from cron.
