What to do when a table name is a reserved word?

746863Feb 24 2010 — edited Feb 25 2010
I know the best answer is not to use a reserved word to name a table. But I have no control over that in this situation. I have read that using all Caps and quotations will allow you to use the table name in queries, i.e. "CATEGORY" is suppose to free the table to be used. But that is certainly not working, nor any variation of that formatting.

Does anyone know how to format a reserved word to allow queries?

Thank You
