What's the underscore?

PowerHouse does not allow you to "alias" column names. We go directly to the
relational database for column information. Column information and table
layouts are not held in the dictionary like IMAGE.

The migration tools in Axiant provide an easy way to import your existing
source code and change names where appropriate.

Subject: What's the underscore?


Is there a way of addressing FIELD_NAME (in Oracle) as FIELD-NAME in
Powerhouse?
Image allowed hyphens in the field name and Oracle doesn't, but we would
like to retain the naming conventions in Powerhouse.
I was thinking along the lines of an alias/synonym statement in the ELEMENT
clause.
