I have been working for a while with SQL Server and I noticed that Microsoft always uses lower cases for all the standard columns (i.g. in the master db). Is there a good reason for following this in my own models? Maybe a performance reason?
Helps when the server is configured with case sensitive collation. If that were the case, then having mixed case names will sure cause a lot of headaches.
How do I know? I was stuck with sp_MSforeachdb in a multiple server scenario and one server had a case sensitive collation. Took me a lot longer than it would have otherwise, to figure out the MS is caps, even with an underscore.
