command line utility for displaying table names of MS Access database

[stephen.anderson]

Can anyone point me to an existing utility or code template to write a
utility? I want a command line utility, passing in the MDB filename,
producing a file (text or whatever) of tablenames and fieldnames.

If I really wanted a command-line utility, I might consider creating a
VBScript file (*.vbs by default) and running that using cscript.exe:
cscript c:\test.vbs -i:c:\test.mdb -o:c:\test.txt
I think the VBScript file can handle commandline arguments. From that
point, I would use DAO or ADOX to get the table information. Those
objects would be created using CreateObject. The FileSystemObject can
be used to create the output file.
