revraz Posted December 25, 2007 Share Posted December 25, 2007 If that's the only two fields in your DB, then just do a UPDATE statement and change the names. But if there are other fields in the record as well, you're better off trying to find a solution on how to sort or display the data as you need, rather than changing it in the DB.

fenway Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 I don't like the fact that you're referring to #1 as UID 1 -- don't change UIDs *ever*. Order the results by something else.
