SQL SELECT queries ARE  case sensitive.

The problem is in your data -- you're using columnames
from your tables as data. Depending on the database,
this information is stored in auxiliary tables (in
Oracle, it would be in a table like
"all_tab_columns"), and may be in a case-insensitive
form. For example, in Oracle, if I run

select column_name, table_name from all_tab_columns

then I see that all the column_names and table_names
are all uppercase even though when I created the
tables, I had mixed case for the table and column
names
