ResultSet resultSet=statement.executeQuery("select * from table");
resultSetMetadata=resultSet.getMetaData();
resultSetMetadata.getColumnLabel(column+1);

Change All Field Names in a Table to have a Lowercase First Letter

I have an SQL database with many tables. All of the field names in each table start with an Uppercase letter. I would like to programmatically change all of the field names in each table to start with a lowercase letter. Can this be done?
E.g.: "FieldName" to "fieldname"
Thanks.

O.K. Just in case anyone else runs into this, I used Carl's answer to guide me in the right direction. This is my final code that created the commands I needed to run a batch (where TMaster is my schema name and the WHERE statement contains
the datatypes in your tables):
SELECT
'EXEC SP_RENAME ''TMaster.'+TABLE_NAME+'.'+COLUMN_NAME+''',
'''+LOWER(SUBSTRING(COLUMN_NAME,1,1))+SUBSTRING(COLUMN_NAME,2,255)
+''',
''COLUMN'''
FROMINFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS
WHEREDATA_TYPE='int'.

How to capture the field name on a form when it's double-clicked?

Hello,
I plan to create a two field Help table that uses the thirty or so unique field names on the user form in field one. The second field is a Memo type field that contains the Help information for each field.
Once I know the field name clicked, I will probably use a query to retrieve the help information. I'm planning to use the Double-Click event so the users can double-click any field on the form to be presented the specific field related information
from the Help table.
How can I capture the name of the field that was double-clicked, so I can proceed with this project? Thank you.
Cordially,
John
Thank you, John Portland, Maine

Thank you, Hans,
How about this code:
Dim varClickedFieldName as String
varClickedFieldName = ScreenActiveControl.ControlSource
Or would you recommend other code?
Cordially,
John

How to return all field names in a table

How do you write a report to return all field names in a table? I prefer the field names in a column.
Thanks
Wayne

Hi,
In Oracle it is,
Select column_name from user_tab_cols where table_name = 'Table_Name';
Note: Table_Name should be in capital letters
In MS SQL Server it is,
SELECT Column_Name + ', '
FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS
WHERE TABLE_NAME = 'Table_Name'
Hope this helps!
Thanks

Script : how to change the Field name in standard program(ZM_MEDRUCK)

Hi Experts,
I am working with SAP SCRIPT. i need to change the Field Name that is PO NO to Document No & PO DATE to Document Date.
These are assigned in data declaration as gv_name and gv_date.
Can anyone help me to change this Fields.
Regards,
Vijayan.R

Hi,
You can archive this by making change in SAP script only. You don't need to touch the standard prgm.
Debug the script and find it out which fields (In script editor) are printing these text on layout... then just replace them by creating your own text...
You can create a text in TTDTG table,, like ZZPO_NAME = ( Document Name),, and use this filed in the script editor.
&ZZPO_NAME&
