Rename Columns
See Also
This dialog can be used to change the names of the columns within a spreadsheet. Individual columns can be renamed by clicking on the left hand side of a column title (indicated by the cursor changing to a pencil).

Column Names

The current column names are listed in order in the Column name list box. A name can be changed by selecting the name within the list (either using the mouse or cursor keys), editing the details within the edit box at the top of the list and then pressing the Enter key to enforce the change. Note that a name is only updated in the list by pressing return, so if another column name is selected without pressing return no change will be made.

Replace

This opens the Replace dialog which allows you to change parts of names for some or all of the columns that match a specified string. For example, a find string of "X" and a replace string of "X[" on the column names X1,X2...X10 will create the new names X[1,X2[...X[10.

OK

Change the names of the columns to those shown in the list.

Cancel

Close the dialog without making any changes.
