Can Form Table Names be more meaningful then, say, ft_form_33? - jrandell - Jul 15th, 2013 Greetings. I searched the forum and the docs but I cant find any mention of how one can make the ft_form_n table names more descriptive (ie: I would like ft_form_33 to be called something more meaningful, like ft_PRs. Or should I focus my efforts on the backend (views, mirroring, shadow tables, alias, etc)? I don't know much about those things, but I need to know if ft can use plainly named tables, or if I should pick up a mysql for dummies and start looking for a work-around. Any assistance or suggestions would be very much appreciated! Thanks, -Jim RE: Can Form Table Names be more meaningful then, say, ft_form_33? - Joe - Jul 17th, 2013 Jim, Changes are best made through the Form Tools interface so the table names really shouldn't be an issue. If you're looking for a way to organize your data you should look further into Views. Cheers, Joseph RE: Can Form Table Names be more meaningful then, say, ft_form_33? - jrandell - Jul 18th, 2013 Thanks Joe, yes, I have looked deeper into this and I have concluded that views is the way to go. thank you for addressing my issue and offering your advice!!!
