Brian –

 

Here’s a quick solution.

 

The query

SELECT Column1

FROM Table1

 

Returns the Column1 value and they would be labeled as Column1.

 

On the other hand

SELECT Column1 AS MyColumn

FROM Table1

 

Returns Column1 values, but they would be labeled as MyColumn.

 

Between the UI and table, insert a query that does this transformation. Now set the datasource for your UI as this new query instead of the original table.

 

HTH.

Subject: [AccessDevelopers] ACT! help

 

hello, I have an ACT database and i am trying to do wome data
mapping.  My problem is the field name that is on the layout is
different from the field name that comes over through ODBC. 

Example:

The layout is  the UI used by the end user. When i view this UI in
Design view. it reveals the field names.

Now when i extract the data through ODBC, the field names are
totally diffrent.

Is there a way to associate the field name on the layout with the
name that is coming back throught odbc.

This would be great help and save a tremendous amount of time trying
to mapp this data.

Thanks
