ah? i have windows xp and never have need to put those single quotes,
if the name of the column was created with uppercase you could need to
quote "ColumnName" (this is not single quote, though)
can you give a simple test case? i mean, a create table (maybe some
test data) and a select... that works the way you describe on those
