The ODBC driver defines catalog.schema.table.column syntax for objects and the default delimiter is a period. The driver also folds native identifiers to uppercase in SQL92 fashion. Unquoted identifiers within application SQL will be uppercased automatically, quoted identifiers are left as-is.
Resolution
Place the table name within double quotes and in upper case:
select * from "DBO.EXAMRESULTS"
