### 8.6.4. Renaming Objects

You can use the Rename action to rename an object.

You will be able to rename an object only if:

1. You have `Delete` permission on the object.

2. The object is checked out to you if it is under version control.

3. No other user has exclusive control of it.

If an object of the same name already exists in the folder it is contained in, then an error message will be reported and the object will not be renamed.

To rename an object:

1. Select the object, then select (Edit) > Rename. This opens the Rename dialog box:

   Figure 8.16: Rename Dialog Box

2. Enter a new name for the object.

3. Click OK.
