Recently, these tables appeared in all of my Access Databases --
MSysAccessObjects, MSysACEs, MSysObjects, MSysQueries and MSysRelationships.
What has happened?

Those are system tables. It seems you have checked the option, Tools ->
Options... --> View -> System Objects.

You opened the hood and are looking at the engine, air filter, radiator and
other parts <g>...

They're the essential Access system tables which contain and control all
aspects of your database. To close the hood use Tools... Options... General
and uncheck "Show System Objects". They'll still be there but will be kept
decently out of sight.
 
Your response was perfect! It made me laugh; I was looking all over the
Options trying to figure out what I opened up. Thank you.
