Operator Rename

I try to reproduce the example of Chapter 3 from the book of M. Hofmann & R. Klinkenberg. I can't introduce the new name in the Operator Rename. Version used: RapidMiner Studio Free Version 8.0.001 on Windows 7 64 Pro. Is there any incompatibility between the book and this version? Input is http://archive.ics.uci.edu/ml/machine-learning-databases/tae/tae.data

hello @Maerkli - welcome to the community. Yes there are many inconsistencies between that online book and RM8; the former having used a much older version of the software. I'd recommend posting your XML process here (see "Read Before Posting" on right when you reply) and attach your dataset. This way we can replicate what you're doing and help you better.

Hallo Scott,

Thanks a lot for the rapid (!) answer. I am quite new with RM. I tried to follow your recommendations. Here is the xml file:

Which operator shall I choose instead of Rename in order to fix the example of M. Hofmann & R. Klinkenberg?

Best regards,
