You can do that only if you are using oracle version 10g.
That is not supported in any prior version.

Here is the syntax


SQL> alter table <tablename> rename column <old columnname> to <new columnname>;

eg:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. alter table test rename column ename to empname;
Good Luck
