Thanks 10What is the version?
In 9i its not possible to rename table using export/import, why not using SQL? its very simple
SQL> create table emp_new as select * from emp;
if its above 10g.then
$expdp system/***** tables=scott.emp dumpfile=emp.dmp logfile=emp.log directory=data_pump_dir
$impdp system/***** dumpfile=emp.dmp logfile=emp_imp.log remap_table=emp:emp_new directory=data_pump_dir
HTH.

Rename Tables in Numbers 3.0

I've been using Numbers '09 for several years, and I have one spreadsheet that has 2 sheets (2012, 2013) and each sheet has multiple tables. In Numbers '09, I was able to copy and entire tables, and after the paste it would have the same name as the previous table. i.e. Original table would be called Oct 12-13, and the Pasted Table would then be called Oct 12-13-1. I could then rename the Table to Oct 19-20. In Numbers 3.0, I am unable to rename tables.
Has anybody been able to find a way to rename individual tables on a sheet?

Hi dbutlerman,
That confused me too at first. In Numbers '09 I figured out how to display and change the name in the Table Inspector. In Numbers 3.0 I couldn't find how to change the name in the Table pane at the right.
But I tried doubleclicking the table name itself on the sheet and found I could edit it right there.
For me, more intuitive and convenient than Numbers '09.

ORA-20079: WM internal error [unable to rename table]

Hi,
I am getting following error when i try to enable versioning on a table. Any idea how to resolve it ?
BEGIN DBMS_WM.EnableVersioning('TestTable'); END;

Hi,
You need to determine the original error that is being generated by oracle. This can be done by attempting to rename the table yourself. For example:
SQL> alter table TestTable rename to RenamedTable ;
That will give you a better understanding as to why Workspace Manager is unable to rename the table. Also, what version of the database and workspace manager are you using ?
If the direct rename succeeds while enableversioning continues to fail, then you would need to file a TAR on this.

Is it possible that rename table captured by streams

is there any way that i can capture rename table??

Just setup your rule for DDL to the schema level and it will.
Use dbms_streams_adm.add_schema_rules instead of dbms_streams_adm.add_table_rules.

Does renaming table require rerunning stats?

OS: OEL (latest) 64-bit
DB: 11gR1
I need to create a copy of a large table A in production (call the new table B). The data is the same but the physical layout of the tables is different (different partitioning scheme is being used between table A and B).
When I go to move table B to replace table A (which will eventually be dropped), do I have to rerun stats on table B?
That is,
(1) table A become table A_OLD
(2) table B becomes table A
Do I need to rerun stats on table A in step (2)? Is there anything else that needs to be done?
( I am doing this to limit the impact to the GUI which uses this table -- the final table name does not change so the GUI should not be affected.)
Cheers!

Yes, do I need to rerun stats on the 'new' table A even though it has the same data and name (after rename) but different partitioning scheme (physical model)? It seems to me that the answer would be 'Yes'.
Otherwise, does not the optimizer fail to recognize the new partitioning?
(1) table Toys (all data present) and table Toys_New (empty)
(2) table Toys_New is loaded with table Toys data (both tables now have same data -- only difference is partitioning)
(2) table Toys is renamed table Toys_Old (will purge this at a later time)
(4) table Toys_New is renamed table Toys
And I was just thinking -- forgot to mention firsthand -- Toys_New will have the same indexes but of course the indexes will have unique names from those on Toys (to avoid 'object already exist' errors.
Given that last note I am more than convinced that stats needs to be run on Toys_New after step (4)
Cheers!Yes, you need to.
Your new table's name is "Toys" but this new table is totally different table than old Toys. So you need to analyze table again.

ThanksIt's not an issue of privileges, its an issue of name resolution. If you specify only the table name (RENAME A_TABLE), it will only look for A_TABLE within the currently connected user's schema. You need to either connect as the owner of the table, or qualify the name.

How to rename tables and refresh views

Hi all
I need to write a script that will rename several tables and at the same time I would like to refresh all the views that point to this table.
questions:
- how do I rename a table
- how do I refresh the views that point to this table?
Thanks
J

Hello,
You might have to write pl/sql to recreate all views depends upon the tables you just renamed. You can use user_dependencies to identify the views and create sql to use new_table_name
DECLARE
   CURSOR mcur
   IS
      SELECT table_name
      FROM user_tables
      WHERE table_name IN ('A1');
   v_sql   VARCHAR2 (100);
BEGIN
   FOR cur IN mcur
   LOOP
      v_sql   :=
         'RENAME ' || cur.table_name || ' to ' || cur.table_name || '_NEW';
      DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line (v_sql);
      EXECUTE IMMEDIATE v_sql;
   END LOOP;
END;Regards

Indexes of a rename table

Hi,
I'm hoping someone can help me as I'm having a difficult time searching for the answer.
My question is whether or not I need to update the indexes of table after it has been renamed to something else?
If anyone could point to where I can find the answer or if anyone knows I would appreciate your help.

Thanks for the help.
For some reason I thought you might since the original index was made against a different table name as for instance,
CREATE TABLE temp_A
NUMB_1 NUMBER,
LETTER_A" VARCHAR2(10 BYTE),
CREATE INDEX A_IDX ON temp_A("NUMB_1");
alter table "temp_A" rename to temp_B;
I thought you may need to drop and recreate the index after renaming. I know it's silly but I just wanted to make sure in case renaming a table would invalidate a bunch of triggers.

Rename Table Name with proper naming convention

Hi,
I have many tables in DB & want to create a copy of those in another DB, but with proper name
Means If My table is fgh_sub_record_file then It should rename like Fgh_Sub_Record_File in dynamic way.
Pls Help.

I am not sure of the reason for your intention.
But, An easy method would be the below:
1. Get all the tables from DB1 to DB2(I assume you do this by backup/restore or export wizard)
2. Create the below function in DB2.
--Create the below function
Create Function dbo.CapitalizeEachword ( @MyString varchar(max))
Returns nvarchar(Max)
As
Begin
Declare @XML xml
Set @MyString = Replace(@MyString,'_',' ')
Set @XML =CAST( '<root><rows><row>' + REPLACE(@MyString,' ','</row></rows><rows><row>')
+ '</row></rows></root>' As XML)
Return
REPLACE((
Stuff (
(Select ' ' + Col
From
Select Stuff(COL, 1,1, UPPER(Left(col,1))) As Col
From
Select X.p.value('row[1]','nvarchar(200)') As col
From @XML.nodes('/root/rows') As X(p)
) X
) Y
For XML Path('')), 1, 1, '')
End
3. Execute the below and verify the generated script and execute the script once concluded.
--Test script to see your execution script(You may need to get the script and execute once verified)
select 'exec sp_rename @objname=' + name + ', @newname=' + dbo.CapitalizeEachword(name)
from sysObjects
where type = 'U'

Renamed tables and sequences; now maps won't deploy

I "inherited" an OWB project where the original developer had not used any naming conventions for the project objects (dimensions, cubes, tables, maps, sequences). I, being a big fan of naming conventions, proceeded to rename the project tables, maps, etc to follow a naming convention.
Well great, but now all the maps are broken (i.e., won't deploy) because the maps still reference the old object names. Is there a way to propogate an object rename to all objects that reference the renamed object? Or do I have to track down all of the places where an object is used, and manually do the rename?
Thanks,
s.l.

Steve:
All u have to do is to log in to your Runtime Editor and check for the mappings, locations and all other objects that you have changed or are associated to the changes are valid.
You do not have to deploy each and evry object; you can click on the module and set the default action and deploy all your objects at one go.
That will solve your problem.

Rename table using sysdate!

I have a statement : rename AA_QISATE_INFO_PROCESSLOG to AA_QISATE_INFO_PROC20090805
This statement is present in .sql file which is having 50 other statements
I want to rename a table with to AA_QISATE_INFO_PROC<sysdate>. I do not want to hardcode date value at the end of table name.

Hi BluShadow .. why is this scary? sorry for being a 'noob', but I have a table, suppose, CurrentData and I rename it to FY09Data and create a new CurrentData, now empty. Is that bad? Please explain.And the users use the application with your new blank CurrentData, but then a couple of months down the line they say... "we really need to be able to see last years data". What do you do? Are you going to copy all the data from your "archive" into the CurrentData? What if the table structure has changed since due to an application/database upgrade and the table structures don't match? Oooo, that's going to get messy. What about changing the application to read archives of data? But that means that the queries would have to be dynamic to cope with dynamic table names that perhaps didn't exist when the application was created. All in all, table names should not be based on changing values such as times or dates.
Now, if it was a partitioned table, the data can still remain in the same table and the partitions would ensure that performance is maintained because you would have partitioned in such a way that previous partitions of data are seperate from the current data. If an application change requires a structural change to the table it will apply to all old data too, and, if the users need to get back to the old data for whatever reason, it's already there. Then, when the data is confirmed as "no longer needed" the partition can simply be dropped... no deletion performance issues on millions of records.

Privileges after renaming Table

Dear All,
I have a table called audit_control and we have some privileges and roles to it..
Now we need to change it to ts_audit_control;
alter table audit_control rename to ts_audit_control;
Now my question is does this automatically copy necessary privileges to new table ?
Any help appreciated
Prasanth

Now my question is does this automatically copy necessary privileges to new table ?Yes,oracle will automatically update datadictionary,do not worry about that.

Rename Table Operator OMB+

Hi,
I'm doing an OMBSYNCHRONIZE TABLE ... where I replace Table A with Table B, which works fine.
Unfortunatley the Table Operator Name isn't changing only the bound name of the Table. How can I alter now the table operator name?
cheers,
Bernhard

You need to alter mapping as
OMBALTER MAPPING 'your_mapping' MODIFY OPERATOR 'table_you_want_to_change' SET PROPERTIES(PHYSICAL_NAME) VALUES('name_you_want')

Query to find tables whcih are renamed

Hi,
Can anyone help me with a query to list the tables which are renamed or a ttribute of a specific table which will give the result.
Example: If database is renamed then create_date from sys.databases gives the database renamed.
Similar I want for tables
Thanks

Hi cnk_gr,
Actually I dont want to rename tables want to list the tables whicha re renamed comaring the time.
Can you suggest how could this be achievedusing sp_rename?
Thanks.
Hi Priyanka,
As for as i know, there is no way to track the changes done by sp_rename, unless if you already plan this case as
cnk_gr mentioned with adding extendedproperty, or you can write your version of SP_rename like SP_rename1 which internally calling SP_rename and track the changes on a table
below is the code the changes the object name, i dont know what %% the statement is doing, but i think it may be updating the objectname in physical location where the objectname is saved(just the reference is changed from old name to new name)
-- update the object name
EXEC %%Object(ID = @objid).SetName(Name = @newname)
May be you can compare the schema between similar other server like reporting server or restore a backup, which doesn't have the rename applyed and find out the differnence.
Note: when you rename a table in SSMS, it internally calling sp_rename to change the table name
Thanks
