hi there , i well like to ask that is there any possible way that i can change the database table name such as (skuo_virtuemart_category) using a tool or software because just changing the database table name manually well cause the system to crash unless i have to manually change all the table name at the coding part and may lead to miss out of the name in the code

export database
create new database under new name
IMport database into new one
THEN: You "should" be able to change it in joomla global configuration
TEST THIS first
If you mean the table prefix then AKEEBA "Admin Tools" component can do this. It's available at http://extensions.joomla.org/search?q=admin+tools
i mean the database table name such as show in red box at the picture, so is there any way to chance it without needed to edit the source code manually because it is easy to corrupt everything
