A quick question about table properties
Hello all:
I have a quick question. If I make a table that I don't want others to see, I can hide it by going to: Right click Table-Properties-Attributes-Hidden (True)-Apply No problem. But, how do I get to see my table again? Thanks in advance David Clifford |

A quick question about table properties
Easy. Tools, Options, View tab. Check Hidden Objects.
You'll probably see a lot of things that were hidden. Actually the problem is that it's so easy to unhide. You'll need to depend on the ignorance of your users not to know this trick. If it's important to hide the data, for example employee pay info, you need something better such as user level security and locking out most users from that table. -- Jerry Whittle, Microsoft Access MVP Light.

A quick question about table properties
Jerry, Darryl...thanks for the reply, sorry for the delay, I had to go up
norht on business. Thanks for the answer..easy when you know how! I really only want to hide a table so that my users can't see, it is not really "secure" data, just some stuff that I want to experiment with.
