Alias names

rbuser

Using Query Designer, sometimes the table names are showed, instead of
it?s alias names. Like:

Table name Alias

TPRD Products


Does anyone can help?

When a new query dataview is created, the Designer.DataSettings are saved
with the dataview as part of the definition. In an end-user application,
you will want to have all dataviews created with the same DataSettings. If
you have some dataviews that were created with different DataSettings, then
try using the Report.Template.OnLoadEnd event to update them.

ReportBuilder caches information about the tables and aliases. If you load
some reports that use the DataDictionary and some that do not, then the
cache will contain a mix of information that is confusing when creating new
reports.

You can clear the meta data cache as follows:

Tech Tip: Clearing the Meta Data Cache
----------------------------------------

There is a global meta data cache that the ReportBuilder uses to cache
information about the available database tables and fields. You can clear
the meta data cache using the following code.

uses
daMetaDataManager;

begin
gMetaDataManager.Clear;

end;
