getColumnName always returns lower case

It seems the dataset.getColumnName method always returns a lower case value, even if the field in the table is upper case or title case. Is there anything I can do to get it the way it is written in the table?

We are indeed doing to lowercase, but we are unsure if we could change this, becouse existing solution may depent on it.

Jan,

Why not change it so there is an option to convert it to lower case or to keep it the way it is -- and then set the default to convert. That way it won't affect existing apps but the new functionality will be available.

It will be in the casing as the database provides in Servoy 3.0

Hello All

I would like to support that idea, for all the things which are now automatically converted to lower case, e. g. for relationships which are also set to all lowercase now.

Many thanks, Robert
