I named a field "page". This caused problems, since "page" is apparently a
reserved word having a special meaning in Access. I renamed my field
"page_number" and avoided the problems. Where can I find a list of other
such forbidden field names, please.
 
One technique I use is create Table / Field names from an
*abbreviated combinations of 2 or more words* which will
almost always be different from all the reserved words in
Access / JET. Note that some Property Names in Access are
made up of 2 or more words but they are usually spelt ou
in full and therefore also different from my abbreviated
combinations.
