Editing an Alias

You can change the name of data source aliases one at a time.

You can also use this method to add an alias to a single field, but you may find it easier to do it this way instead.

Implementation:

  1. Switch to the Definition tab.
  2. Click to open the Model Data Sources window.
  3. Select the intended data source.
  4. If you have not already checked out the data source, do so by clicking .
  5. (Stored procedures only) Click Parameters.
  6. (Regular data sources) Click Fields.
  7. Right-click the intended field or parameter.
  8. Click Edit Alias to open the Field Alias dialog.
  9. Type a valid alias name.
  10. Click OK.
  11. Repeat steps 7-10 until you have modified all intended aliases.
  12. Click Save and close the resulting pop-up.
  13. Click Close.
