Jean,

The data is stored in the database using the Field ID, not the label value. Changing the label will not affect the data. If you are considering deleting the old field and creating a new field then you will lose the data. The way to do that is to create the new field and copy all of the old data to the new field.

** Hi everyone,
I've been working with a form for a while where there is a stored field called, say, xInitialValue. Now I want to convert this field to a temporary field zInitialValue because we don't need those values stored anylonger. Does anyone know what the repercussion of such a conversion will be? What would happen to the values already stored in the database under the old field name xInitialValue?

Thanks for your help! Jean
