How can I get table names from

Answer 1

I was able to make the code work with a MDB file. I had the option to set the user permissions using "Database Tools - Users and Permissions" on the ribbon. This option is only available for MDB files. Now the problem is to make it work with a ACCDB file.

Here is my code:

Dim DBFile As String  
Dim Connection As ADODB.Connection 
Dim Recordset As New ADODB.Recordset

DBFile = "C:\Documents and Settings\User\Desktop\Son.mdb"

Set Connection = New ADODB.Connection  

Connection.Open "Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0; Data Source= " & DBFile & ";"  

SQLString = "SELECT MSysObjects.Name AS table_name" & _
"FROM MSysObjects WHERE (((Left([Name],1))<>" & """~""" & ")" & _
"AND ((Left([Name], 4))<>" & """MSys""" & ")" & _
"AND ((MSysObjects.Type) In (1,4,6)));order by MSysObjects.Name" 

Set Recordset = New ADODB.Recordset 
Recordset.Open SQLString, Connection

The problem is that I can't make it work with ACCDB files.
