You are right, the SQL standard does specify double quote.  MySQL on  
the other hand prefers the ` character (numToChar(96)).  It will only  
accept double quotes if ANSI_QUOTES is enabled on the database  
server.  Valentina 1.x, on the other hand (which is not SQL92  
compliant), will accept single quotes around a table name.
