Yes - It will work, however I can not change all our clients SQL statements
and it will lead to maintenance of each column name twice. Perhaps this
will be the solution for now, if I can not find a real solution to the
issue. But I will not be a hero in the eyes of the guys that have to go
through all the code. Perhaps they will even prefer to go back to DDS :(

Please don't take this with any disrespect. I'm just curious, and I
don't fully understand the situation. What benefit were you trying to
gain by moving away from DDS?

Also, would it be possible to automate the code modifications?
