Re: ? about SQL Long table names and funky member names

[Charles Wilt <charles.wilt@xxxxxxxxx>]

Vicki,

It only matters to us humans.  And even then, assuming you only have one
member in the table; you might not ever notice.

I think the only way to get the member name to be what you want is to
- Create the file with the system name first, then rename it to the long
name.
 or
- Remove the automatically generated member and add your own before you
start loading data.
