      Do people actually write SQL in all caps? Ever since I was a boy I’ve always written SQL (and HTML) in lower case.

        I do it because it helps me visually separate SQL keywords from table and column names.

        Helps especially when your SQL is embedded in another file so there is no syntax highlighting.

          That’s a good reason. I guess when I’m directly writing SQL the queries are point in time and not part of some enduring codebase.
