Becasue the original version of our accounting app was written 18 years ago, we've taken the liberty of renaming most of our entities and properties in LLBL for our database (We've got something 200 tables named PR180, PR182, QC134, CHAK31.. completely meaningless).

I'm trying to write a .template that outputs a text file with the original table & field names and the newly renamed entity & property names..

I notice <CurrentEntityName>, but don't see something like <OriginalEntityName>.. Here's what I have so far. Notice the OriginalEntityName bit...

I couldn't copy/paste my template code in here.. apparently tinyforum doesn't like that.

What about TableName or TargetName?

Figured it out.. Still have some tweaking to do on the template before I post it here..
