| I have setup an acct that gives read access to certain tables in a sql server database. Some users need to do more extensive reporting than the application allows so they use MS Access to do these reports. Previously, I have created a Access db with DTS and they could use that, now that connections are better and software is updated, i want to let them have a direct link. I have set this up and all works fine, however they tables or views that show up have the dbo_tablename instead of just tablenameSince they have tons of queries,macros, etc that reference the tablenames , is there a way to fix the naming convention that sql server sends to Access?Cheers. |

| [code]Public Sub RemoveDBO() Dim t As TableDef For Each t In CurrentDb.TableDefs If Left(t.Name, 4) = "dbo_" Then t.Name = Mid(t.Name, 5) Next MsgBox "All Done!"End Sub[/code]====Paul |

| Danke,I wish I could avoid the dbo_ naming convention but this will help circumvent the complaining I could get for having to change all the tables once in access. |
