QQ - How do I rename a table?

Prev Next

It is not possible to rename a table once it has been loaded as changing a table name has too many implications for scripts, reports and calculated fields.   With that in mind, if it is still necessary to change the name of a table, use one of the following methods:

  1. Modify the script that created the table to use the new name and rerun - be aware of any dependant scripting methods that will be affected. 
  2. Export the existing table into a new table with the new name and then delete the original.    Note that all joins will need to be recreated and calculated fields will still reference the original table.
