I am using the compact edition on a desktop using VS2005 as well as SQL Server Management Studio. None of those tools allow me to rename a column or rename a table. Can someone point me a tool the runs on the desktop (as opposed to running on a CE device) that allows me to do the renaming?

EXECUTE
sp_rename N'dbo.Tablename.Columnname, N'New_Columnname', 'COLUMN'But getting this error message:

i am trying to set up a way of renaming a table in a sp.
ive been using
exec sp_rename 'old table', 'new table'
however if i try and specify to database and owner i end up with a weired db.owm.db.own.table name in the outcome. ive tried putting using it without specifying a db name in a sp and then sched job to exec the sp but it doesnt rename, probably because it doesn know which db to look for the ld table name in. however the sched job doesnt fail?
any ideas?

Hello every one
Does someone know how a DTS package can be renamed ?
TIA
if my computer name is x and sql server was installed and therefore took on the default name of x, can I change the sql server name to y at a later date while the computer name remains as x? If so how do I do it?
The sp_addserver is internal recognition. But I want to connect to sql server using the new name y.
I am assuming setup needs to be run only if computer name also changes to y and this is not the case.
Any help is appreciated.

To all,
I would like to rename my SQL server. Someone suggested SQLServer and we went with it, but after some discussions with other developers we thought that this name would be a hackers delight. So now I need to rename it to something that wouldn't put a "bulls eye" on its back. Any suggestions? :-)
This machine is not in production just yet, so if I had to reinstall SQL it wouldnt' be that bad of an option.
Thnx.

How to prevent a stored procedure or trigger from being invalidated after renaming a table.
I used sp_rename but it does not alter the stored procs and triggers using the table ,is there any way to change all the dependent objects without manually generating the script and then changing it
In MySQL I would issue this standard(?) SQL command to rename a table:
ALTER TABLE tablename RENAME TO footable
How is this done in ANSI SQL?
Just a shoot in the dark here...
When SQL Server exports procs to individual files, it creatin them like
dbo.sproc.prc
Needless to say this filename is causing fits...
