Hi,

I'm using Access 2003.

Sometimes, when I have a table used in a query, if I rename the table it Access also renames the table in the query. It's also happened in VB scripts.

It doesn't do it consistently, but it scares me.

Does anyone have any advice how I might be able to avoid this?

Try:
  1. Tools ==> Options ==> General Tab ==> Name AutoCorrect
    1. Select ==> Track name AutoCorrect info
    2. Select ==> Perform name AutoCorrect
