Hi,

Block data entrance ?

I have never tested a situation where data is entering a database/ table 

and I rename a single field , or column or table and even the Database itself 

Can you please guest or anticipate the respond of the server's or the application's error handling and/or exceptions ?

Would there be ?

regards

Create a new table with same structure from METADATA

Use "Batchmove" (In Delphi VCL) with Delete Source enabled

Connect the two tables, MOVE DATA

Drop the empty table.

COMMIT!!!

This would take merely 15 minutes

Hi,

If table is a big one with millions of rows, 15min cannot be enough moreover down time might not be possible as you should block data entrance while doing that.
