In Access 2003 (or any of them) if you link to a table, you cannot see the
Description of the table in the Database window.
Can I make that happen?

In QBE grid, I can't resize a column to show all of the contents (in design
view) and save it that way - that is, see it that way next time I open in
design view.
Can I make this happen?

Obviously I have too much time on my hands to worry about this, but....

Many thanks!

Ron

If the table has a description property, you could programmatically
OpenDatabase on the back end, and examine Properties("Description") of the
TableDef.

Queries are not a user interface. Create a form in continuous or datasheet
view if you care about controlling the characteristics of the interface.
