Column Headings Changing Unexpectantly

[djacobson]

Good morning.. I am currently working with Access 2013 and I have run into a problem. I imported an Excel table that includes these column headings (StudentFirstName and StudentLastName). I have created two queries using this table (just simple select queries --- nothing fancy). The end result is switching the column titles. I have looked at the properties of the table and nothing is out of ordinary. I checked the query to see if somehow I had included the column names being different and nothing there either. Does anyone know why this is happening and how do I get it to stop. I have worked with Access a long time and this has never happened before.

Thank you
Donna

So, if you look at the Table, are the column headings correct there?
If so, can you paste the SQL code of the query that has them wrong here?

Further to Joe's question, Is the data correct when you review it in Excel?
