Hi,

I have a bunch of tables that were imorted from elsewhere and all start with a prefix that I'd like to replace with my own (when adding entities from the catalog). For example:

I have:

ab_SomeTable ab_SomeOtherTable

and want (in my catalog list):

SurveySomeTable SurveySomeOtherTable

replacing "ab_" with "Survey"

Is there a way to do that?

TIA, Jack

You mean, you want this prefix to be removed from the entities, or just from the tables? (and if you want it from the tables, is there a particular reason you want this?)

I want the tables named dbo.rz_* to be renamed Survey* in the EntityName column of the "Add new entities from catalog" dialog box, so I don't have to manually rename each one.

IE, the table dbo.rz_Settings would get the EntityName SurveySettings.

Thx, Jack

Please check out the strip patterns in the project properties. Default is 'tbl', but you should fill in 'rz'. Then add the entities to the project, you'll see that the rz_ prefix is stripped off

Yup, got that. Now, any way I can replace rz_ with something instead of stripping it?

No, that's not supported.
