----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
 There is (seems to be) a filename case dependancy in the SHP provider
 whereby if the associated DBF file has a different case in the name or
 extension the schema information in the DBF is not recognised.

 There are many tools that create SHP/DBF as a 'standard' GIS interchange
 format and several create upper-case DBF files and lowercase SHP leading
 to confusion and additional filename/batch processing before FDO can be
 used.
