Problem with table name

Hi!

I have a problem to access tables in an Informix Database. Table names
are something like that :
informix.pv_tvvte

When I try a "SELECT informix.pv_tvvte.numero_vente FROM
informix.pv_tvvte WHERE informix.pv_tvvte.numero_vente=#value#", (I use
ibatis and spring) I get a syntax error exception (SQLException "Bad SQL
Grammar").

If I replace dot with "_" in the name, I get a "Table Not Found" Exception.

How could I escape the dot in the tables names ?

TIA

The normal solution is to use name delimiters. They surround the name and allow you to
use names that contain embedded special characters and are reserved words. For SQL92,
you use double quotes ("); can't tell you what Informix takes.
