  John Paul -

  Did Mairead's response get you unblocked, or are you still having difficulties

  Does the same behavior happen on CTP7

  Look in the error list for the file which is has an incorrect syntax error message assiocatiated with it. If you fix that issue and then rerun refactor->rename, it should work

  The problem remains.

  Here are the steps:

  1. Went to menu bar. Selected View | Error List.

  2. Went to Schema View. Right-clicked the CURVECLASS table. Selected Refactor | Rename. Entered a new table name of curveClassTemp. Left checkboxes set to the defaults (checked, unchecked, checked). Clicked OK.

  3. Preview Changes - Rename says "Your project or one of its dependencies contains syntax errors. References may not be updated." Nothing in the Error List window, not on any tab. Clicked Apply. Changes were applied. I'm glad the changes were made, but I don't know if the warning message mattered or what actually caused it.

  4. Renamed curveClassTemp to curveClass. The rename occured, but the table name in the Solution Explorer and the Schema View is all uppercase. My basis for saying that the rename occurred is doing a View Code from Solution Explorer.

  My points are:

  1. I have a warning message that offers no clarity to me.

  2. The Solution Explorer and View Code keep the all uppercase original name even after changing the case in the two step process described above. Clicking the Refresh icon doesn't help.

  Renaming works as it should in CTP7, thanks.
