Hi all,

I'm working on version 11.1.7 and wanted to know if Data modules have the capability of replacing a table already present in the DM with a new table was added to the database. Scenario is that we have Table 1 already being used in a DM and we have created a new copy of Table 1 as Table 1a with a few additional fields. I want to replace Table 1 in DM with Table 1a but I could not find an option to do so. Does this capability currently not exist? Or am I just missing the correct place to find it?

Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks,

I'd recommend the PMsquare CogBox. The free edition contains the rename function for DM query identifiers.
