You can't rename objects in the db anymore. There is a checksum in the high order tables (filter, arschema, actlink, etc), which is where the name is stored. Altering the data in those tables will invalidate the workflow/checksum and put your workflow in a broken state. Think that was introduced in 6.x. You will need to go through the api to rename the objects; choose your method: - export a def, modify the names in the def, delete the objects from the server, then import - write an api (perl/c/java) to update the workflow Axton Grams On 4/24/07, Jarl Grøneng <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Did change prefix some years ago.
