In the view designer I know I can open free tables and base the view on those free tables. However, is it possible to create aliases for those tables and base the view to run from the aliases instead?

I'm trying to convert a program over to using a view. However, some of the tables the view would need are opened in a number of other programs called by the one using the views.

If I don't have to, I don't want to have to change all the programs called by this one.

Thanks for whatever help you can offer.
