How to change both name and display name of variable

Ok, thanks for your reply.
How can I get the original name of a variable then ?
Here is my problem : I'm reading series from a .tsv file. EViews is reading it perfectly except for a bunch of variables which got a name longer than 24 characters.
EViews automatically renames them but it also stores the "real name" in a "original name" field.
How can I get access to it ?
I would imagine something like :

Code:

string %myName=name_of_the_series.@originalname

Thanks for your help.
