has anyone developed any SQL to convert table and column names to Camel Case? The reason I ask: I am planning to port my code to Visual Studio; one suggestion was that it would be much easier to port the code if the database was Camel Case.

Seriously? Who said that?

What code are you talking about?

What programming language(s) are you talking about? "Visual Studio" is a GUI tool, not a language.

IMO when in Rome do as the Romans do, which is why I use camelCase to create identifiers local to JavaScript, and I extend that to CREATE SERVICE statements for web services to be requested via XMLHttpRequest (which, by the way, does not use camelCase for its name :)

However, camelCase is generally NOT used for SQL objects. Nor should it, IMO.

IMO it is an advantage to use different styles for vastly different objects, so you can easily tell local variables apart from database columns.
