A work around is the "create or change" manage to rename if you only change
one column name at the time - if that is documented I don't know..

Hi Matt

Seems there might already be an RFE for this - you could check that out.

Now there might be a kind of "interesting" workaround - I've not tried
it - but using the ALTER TABLE with the syntax for changing the SQL name
for the shorter system name.

Cheers
Vern

It seems DB2 for IBMi doesn't support the following syntax but other

ALTER TABLE library.tablename RENAME COLUMN oldcolumn TO newcolumn;

Am I missing something?

Any chance of doing it through a CL command?

FYI: These are all DDL / SQL described tables.
