you can rename the columns in the sql so they have the same name in both
selects:

select c1name custname
from custmast1
union all
select c2name custname
from custmast 2 ;

How do I tell SQL to use short (10 byte) names instead of alias field
names?

Issue: I am CREATEing a table with a union and SQL errors out because the
ALIAS field names are not identical between the two union input files. But
the 10-byte names are identical.

Thanks
