Hi,

I was just wondering if there is any other way in postgresql in which I could 
assign alias names to columns other than creating views and assigning the field 
names with the "AS" operator?

I have shapefiles with column names which have cryptic titles. When I upload 
them into postgis and serve them in my viewer application, the original 
"cryptic" column names will be displayed. It would be nice to change them for 
the use in the viewer application but have the original names retained also to 
ensure that updates to the data can be done easier.


yours,

Rob
