I have hundreds of feature classes each bearing tens-to-hundreds of attribute fields... I critically need the ability to modify &/or import the field aliases for all of them in a batch process.

The aliases could be imported from a stand-alone table containing ROW1=Field Name & ROW2 = Field Alias.

Ideally, it would function as "seamlessly" as a table join &/or domain/subtype import.

Thanks!

You could use this tool: Rename Field Geoprocessing Tool (10.1)  It will do aliases as well in batch mode.

It would also be good to be able to batch add aliases to feature classes - SDE and file geodatabase.
