I have a problem using longtable, i used it because i needed a table that occupies two pages, and the caption that marks Table 4.1: Table of statistics, i want it to be for example Chart 4.1 : Table of Statistics, or something like that, i just need to use renewcommand i think, i have used it in figures and changed Figure to another thing, but I'm not being able to do so with longtable.... Any ideas? Thanks
\renewcommand\tablename{Chart}
\caption{Tabla de actividades}
\end{longtable}
Throws this error

If I try to put caption at the top, same as renew, it throws me some errors

\renewcommand\tablename{Chart}
will change the display, if you want separately counted tables and charts it's a bit trickier and you should clarify exactly what you do want.\caption
is a table row you need\\
after it if it isn't the last row, (see the example in my answer) that is unrelated to the question about \tablename, please don't edit questions to ask unrelated questions as it makes the answers very hard for later readers to follow
