Best practice for the use of reserved words

bentonMay 7 2010 — edited May 9 2010
Hi,
What is the best practice to observe for using reserved words as column names.
For example if I insisted on using the word comment for a column name by doing the following:

CREATE TABLE ...
"COMMENT" VARCHAR2(4000),
...

What impact down the track could I expect and what problems should I be aware of when doing something like this?

Thank You
Ben
