SQL DDL to rename table and rename field

[Shimon Sofer]

Hello

Does anybody know how to change table name (and field name) using
SQL query ?

I want to use it from Delphi/ADO.

Thanks

It would be easier to create a new table w/ the new name and column name
& then copy the data from the old table, then delete the old table.

Example:

CREATE TABLE <new table> (
col1 integer,
col2 varchar(25),
col3 tinyint
)

INSERT INTO <new table> (col1, col2, col3)
SELECT col1, col2, old_col FROM <old table>

DROP TABLE <old table>
