Renaming Tables and Table Applications

 

CSPro automatically assigns a name to each table in the application, such as TABLE1, TABLE2, etc. These names are displayed in the table tree (when "names in tree" is checked on the view menu), shown in certain error messages, and used in table post calculation.

 

Tables Tree

 

You can change the name of a table using the table properties dialog. Right-click on the table in the "Tables" tree and choose "Properties". Edit the name of the table and click "OK". Note that the system will not allow you to have two tables with the same name.

 

Table Properties Dialog Box

 

You can also change the name and label of the table application by right-clicking on the table application in the "Tables" tree and choosing "Properties". The tables application is always located at the top of the tree. Edit the name and label of the application and click "OK."
