Allow users to map objects that were renamed in model or in databa…

Toad Data Modeler

Hi Folks:
I currently am working on a complex model and want to create a change script.

Several of the tables have had columns renamed. I saw this in the forum from x4 years ago:

Hi Dominics, the difference is based on the value of Unique property of the CompanyAltKey attribute. In the orignal model the value is True, in reversed model the value is False. We plan to work on significant improvements and e.g. allow users to map objects that were renamed in model or in databa…

Has this been implemented? If so how do I go about telling toad data modeler which fields/columns have been renamed?

Thanks,
Matthew

Hello Matthew,
in current version Toad Data Modeler 6.4, you can map attributes(columns) and Entities(Tables) to other.
See the scresnshot, buttons with 3 dots are for mapping to object with other name etc.
