Can't find table definition

I am working with an undocumented, unfamiliar Access database developed by
someone else. A query in the database contains a reference to a table that
is not defined as a table, a linked table, or a query. Everything is
working fine. However, I need to make changes to the "hidden" table.

Any ideas where the definition might be hidden?

Thanks,

Reid
 
Reid,

It may be that your table is set to Hidden, while your Access settings
prevent hidden objects from being displayed in the database window. Try
Tools > Options, View tab, check Hidden Objects. If this is indeed the case,
your table will now appear.

Yes - that's it!

Thanks
