You should only have to reference your table with double quotes if your table name contains uppercase characters or is a PostgreSQL keyword. In PostgreSQL, this works, so using double quotes is not a problem:
CREATE TABLE "x"(gid serial);
SELECT * FROM x;

What is your exact command with shp2pgsql?

Hi All,
The shp2pgsql generated sql uses double quotes around table name and column names, such as: CREATE TABLE "x" (gid serial PRIMARY KEY, "route" varchar, "jurisdicti" varchar,.... The effect is that I have to use double quotes in SQLs that access data in this table later on. For example, I have to use sql like: select * from "x" Sql without double quotes, such as below, won't work:
    select * from x
Thanks for any help. cyw
