10.521: Advanced SDK for Customizing Mobile Applications

Description 

When using SQL Server as the data source during data import, if the selected table contains brackets ([ or ]) in the table name, the default query will be the following: 

Select [new]
from [dbo].[[NEW]]

Why is this happening? 

The bracket character "[ ]" is used as a quoting delimiter. It is not suggested that you include brackets in the table name.
If you want to query a table which contains brackets in the table name, refer to the following workaround. 

Workaround

• Change the query to the following, using quotations (") to replace the brackets ([ ]).
  

  
  Select [new]
  from [dbo]."[NEW]"

  
  
• Enable Quoted Identifiers when using a DSN or DSN-less connection. The query will succeed.
  

How to Enable Quoted Identifiers

Windows ODBC DSN

• Open ODBC Data Source Administrator.
  

• Click Configure.
• Go to the Advanced tab and select the Enable Quoted Identifier checkbox.
  

Linux ODBC DSN

1. Edit the configure file
