Default Renaming columns in MS Query

I use several MS Queries to import into Excel '03 workbooks via ODBC from our
corporate mainframe (linked Access tables). I would like to rename the column
headings in the query design before returning the results to Excel. However,
despite the options to do so, I keep getting error messages about a 'missing
expected lexical'. I even tried editing the SQL statement but got the same
results. What's the trick to make MS Query rename the columns?
