Assuming you're using SQL Workbench/J...

Which seems to use JDBC...

Take a look at setting the JDBC connection property, "extended metadata" to
"true"

That's what iNav RunSQL scripts uses to switch between column names (false)
and labels (true)

I have a Linoma GoAnywhere project that I can generically pass a PF name

But, the CSV format has its' own issues that SQL Workbench seems to
overcome with save as XLS.

Linoma has XLS output but, depending on the # of records, the performance
is not so hot.

May just need some scripting or such on the SQL Workbench side.

Hmmm - that’s an issue I have too.

I had thought about trying to come up with something using the sys tables
but my SQL is not good enough for that kind of fancy stuff - although I can
do it using a separate SQL statement in my Open Access handlers so I guess
that will probably do.

I'm using SQL Workbench for a number of data extractions where I need to

save the results as XLS.

I haven't found a way to get the column text or titles in lieu of the

column names. Does anyone know a way to do this?
