Delete a table in another database

G

Gerald Stanley

Try something along the following lines

Dim appAccess As Application
Dim db As Database

Set appAccess = CreateObject("Access.Application")
appAccess.OpenCurrentDatabase "C:\Access\MyDatabase.MDB"
Set db = appAccess.CurrentDb
db.TableDefs.Delete "MyTable"

Set db = Nothing
appAccess.Quit
Set appAccess = Nothing

Hope This Helps
