Hiding and Unhiding Tables

You can hide tables so that they cannot be viewed or queried in ODBC and JDBC applications.

To hide a table:

  • In the Design View, in the left pane, right-click the table that you want to hide and then click Hide Table.

In the left pane, the Hidden Object icon displays beside the table name to indicate that it is hidden.

To unhide a table:

  • In the Design View, in the left pane, right-click the table that you want to unhide and then click Unhide Table.

The Hidden Object icon indicating a hidden table no longer displays beside the table name.
