Getting Started in the Workbench › Workbench Development Environment › Rename an Object

Rename an Object

The Rename Object dialog lets you change the name of objects (forms, packages, and package groups) in the Explorer View and List View. Additionally, the Find Form and Filter Packages dialogs display search results in a list of available objects of a certain type, and you can execute the Rename function on your selection. For example, after locating the form you want to rename, you can right-click it and select Rename from the shortcut menu to open the Rename Object dialog.

The following rules apply to the rename feature:

• You can only rename an object to which you have update access.
• You must use the rename item or rename path processes to rename items or rename paths, respectively.

Follow these steps:

1. Navigate the Workbench to the object you want to rename.
2. Right-click the object, and select Rename from the shortcut menu.

   The Rename Object dialog appears and displays the object name you selected.

3. Enter a new name for the object, and click OK.

   The object is renamed.
