Rename Table to what is in textbox

Alireza355
I want to know how to rename a table to what is in a textbox in an unbound form.

For example: Text1=abcd

I want to rename Table1 to abcd

I know I can do this:

DoCmd.CopyObject , "abcd", acTable, "Table1"
DoCmd.DeleteObject acTable, "Table1"


But how to rename the table to the textbox contents??????????

Thanx.

This would be the basic code. This code does not, however, check for the existence of either the Source or Copied Tables:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. Dim ctl As TextBox
  2.  
  3. Set ctl = Me![Text1]
  4.  
  5. If Not IsNull(ctl) Then
  6.   DoCmd.Rename ctl, acTable, "Table1"
  7.     RefreshDatabaseWindow
  8. Else
  9.   MsgBox "No Table Name entered in Text1!", vbExclamation, "No Name Entered"
  10. End If
