In reports, how to change the column name?

[SK36]

Hi Team,

I have a survey report in which there is one column named  "string value". I want to rename it as "Survey comments". The report is created with the help of database view. 2

Can anyone please help me in this?

Please check Change Column Label on Database View .

@SK36 You cannot change the field label on the report.

Please mark as correct answer if this answers your question.

Create a new label for that field and add your database-view-table-name. It will rename the field.

Go through below links for the same.

You can use a function field to have a different name, and show the value, id do something like 

glidefunction:concat(<<field_name>>,'');

which basically takes your field and concatinates it with nothing, to show just your fields value.
