Rename Tables

[Chris Wagner]

After working on Tables, Relationships, Forms and Reports and getting
most of them working... I'd like to change the name of the tables to
something more 'user friendly'. Of course all the reports and forms
call for 'Strange' table names that were used while making the forms
and Reports... Is there an 'Easy' way to change the names of tables
and still have the reports work or is this something I should have
thought of before starting the project.

thanks

Two third-party products are designed just for this purpose: Speed Ferret, a
commercial software package from http://www.moshannon.com and Find and
Replace, a shareware package from http://www.rickworld.com. I'm a big fan
of Black Moshannon* Software's Speed Ferret; haven't used Rick Fisher's Find
And Replace since Access 2.0 days.

* seemed a rather strange name to me, too, but a
search revealed a Black Moshannon State Park
in Pennsylvania, so I assume it is the name of an
area or landmark or historical somethingorother.
