Specifying alias options

Specify alias options according to your needs.

 

Name

Specify a name for the alias. The name must not identify a table, view, nickname, or alias that exists in the current database. If a two-part name is specified, the schema name cannot begin with ’SYS’. The rules for defining an alias name are the same as those used for defining a table name.

 

Comment

Specify a comment to the alias or leave the field blanc.

 

Object name

Specify the base object that the alias references. Select from drop-down list a table, view, nickname, or alias for which alias-name is defined. If another alias name is supplied (alias-name2), then it must not be the same as the new alias-name being defined (in its fully-qualified form). The table-name cannot be a declared temporary table.
