I created tables with the data definition option in SQL and established
primary keys and foreign keys. They appear on the database window under
'Queries' but on under the 'Tables' menu. I went to the "Queries' menu in the
toolbar and clicked 'Run" but an error message : "Table <tablename> already
exists". I dont have any other tables with the same name. And each time I
'Run" every table displays that same message. I'm not familiar with using SQL
in Access, could someone please help? Im using Office XP Pro.

Sorry, I can't quite parse this sentence:

Would you mind rewriting that?

Are you working in an MDB file or in an ADP? Can you post the SQL of
one of the make-table queries that (I gather) you ran?
