Rename a Dataset and Change Its Description
You can rename and change the description of any dataset that you have Full Control or Read-Write access to.
Renaming a dataset doesn't affect a workbook's reference to the dataset, and any workbooks using the dataset display the new name and continue to work as designed. When you add a dataset to a workbook, the workbook connects to the dataset by the dataset's fixed object ID, which was assigned when the dataset was created and saved, and not by its name. See Copy a Dataset's Object ID.
