Please Help! Tables with SQL's Reserved Words....!

    Hey Experts ....

    I'm caught with a difficult SQL problem. I have an array of stock symbols. One in particular is, "ALL". I cycle through the array with a simple FOR...NEXT loop. I use SQL's CREATE command to make each new table.

    How can I make a new table with a reserved word (or SQL Command)? Is there some special character that I should use to surround the array name to indicate that it may contain a reserved word?

    I'm using Visual Basic .Net 2008.

    May each of you have a blessed day the Lord wills.

    Just to let you know ... The solution was MUCH simpler then I thought. To correct this problem, I added a suffix to the end of each stock symbol after an "_" (underscore) character. Hence, ... the problem was no more!

    God bless....

    You just need to change the name of the field to something that is not a reserved word...
