how can i change the direction of the tables to be from right to left?

I am using Access 2003

Thanks
 
Not sure what you mean by "direction of the tables".

Generally you should not look at the tables once you build a database. You
should be working in queries, reports, and forms. In those objects, you can
lay out the fields in any order you wish.

The order of data in the actual table is not important.
 
i mean, i want the view of the page to be from right to left. So the added
columns/fields will start showing from the right not the left side.
 
Again, the order in the table is not relevant.

In your forms, reports, and queries you can put the fields in the order you
indicate.

for example, in your table you might have...

[FirstName] [LastName] [Address1] [Address2] [City] [State] etc.

In your forms or reports, you can put these in any order you want. You
could have...


[Address1] [City] [ZIP] [LastName] [FirstName]

for example.



If you really care about the order of the columns in your table, you can
open the table and drag and drop your columns around. You could grab
[LastName] and move it before [FirstName] for example.

So, to answer your question, just open the table and move the fields where
you'd like them. But, there is absolutely no reason to do so.
 
Thanks
