    Changing field names in queries

    I had to put expressions in some of the fields of my query and I would like to change the field name to a different name besides espresion1 or expression2 or so on. I try to go to properties of each field and change it there and it will not let me. Any suggestions? Thanks, Scott

    In design view of the query, right click on the FieldName and select Zoom. Now just highlight the name and change it to YourFieldName:
