I have a activity field which consists of administration, protection, support records. I want to display administration record as admin in my tblrequest. How to do this?
Thanks in advance
 
I always recommend you never view a table. You always view things via views - normally queries in Jet. One of the ideas of views is you can make the underlying data more user-friendly. Changing the name is just one example.

Create a query in the QBE query grid. Remove the field administration and add another one admin:[administration]. This will now display (and update) administration but with the name admin. Look at the SQL and you will see it now says [administration] AS admin.
