Subject:      variable renameing
Content-Type: multipart/alternative;

I have a data set named letters with variable names a,b,c,d,..etc.  I
want to rename these variables with names that are stored in another
data set called names.  The names data set looks like the following:

Id          name
------------------------
a          speed
b          temperature
c          volume
d          time
Etc.        etc.


How can I accomplish this without having to manually type each name into
a rename data step.  Please help.  Thanks.

Kevin
