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

I'm not sure if there is a solution within SQL, but you could create a
CL program to spin through the files and rename the members.
There's a CL command RNMM that will do this. Or you could write the
program in another language and use QCMDEXC to execute the RNMM command.

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.

Hi all,

I'm migrating some SQL Server tables to DB2. I'd like to keep the
long table name so I'm using RENAME to get a palatable system name
rather than the funky generated name.

I noticed that I still get a funky member name xxxxx00001. How do I
rename this? Can I do it in the same script I use to generate the

table?

Does it matter???

Vicki
