Access Tip of the Day
Hiding database objects from view (Access 97/2000/2002)
Although you may typically want to let users access any object in a database, there may be certain times when you would that users are unable to see certain tables, queries, or other objects. If so, you can flag an object as being hidden. By default, such objects are invisible. To flag an object, right-click on it in the Database window, and choose Properties from the shortcut menu. When the Properties dialog box appears, select the Hidden check box and click OK. Note that users can still get to the object if they really want to -- and you can temporarily redisplay the object if you later want to clear the Hidden property setting. To display objects that are normally hidden, choose Tools | Options from the menu bar. Then, click on the View tab, select the Hidden Objects check box in the Show panel and click OK.
