title: How to create a simple shortcut name for long table names?
body: <p>I'm using SQL developer, and my usual work is largely querying database tables with very long names.I don't have admin access to database, so I can't change the table names to short names.Plus it's a centralized database on which many people in many offices are working.To come to the point, I want to be able to have short reference names to these long table names which would be local to my SQL developer.For example, if table name is *I_am_a_long_name*, I want a short reference name like <strong>IAALN</strong> (The short name will be given by me)so I can write:</p>
  
  <pre><code>select * from IAALN;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>How can I do this?</p>
