Extra Tables?
I have recently experienced every time I create a new database in Access I see 5 new tables that are supposed to be hidden, I can open them, but I cannot delete them. Is this something new in Access ...
Yes that is what I am seeing. OK then , I have only recently seen these pop up. So you would think the default would be hidden from view so as not to distract the novice (me) from asking such questions. You cleared it up for me Thanks!
- The default is indeed for the system tables to be hidden BUT it is an application-wide setting.
In other words, if you set hidden or system tables visible in one Access database, that setting will apply to all other databases. Hide them in one database & they remain hidden in all other databases
