    How to find an object in a mdb

    Hello everyone,



    I have a object in a mdb's query. How can I find this object in the mdb?. I don't find it neither tables nor queries.

    Thanks in advance

    Post the SQL statement.

    Access does not have capability to search its structure. This requires building your own code to search or installing third-party app like Rick Fisher's Find & Replace or V-Tools.

    What is empty? If there is a table on the top portion of query design and it is showing no fields, that means that Access can't see the table. It is a linked table? To test this, open the table from the database window and see what occurs.

    Please try again to describe your issue in simple terms. Your issue is not clear to readers.

    Thanks you for the reply

    Attached the jpg

    The first jpg shows the query design. I can't open the table DIASODCA because doesn't exist neither tables or queries.

    Basically it does not exist any more, it has been deleted. No way to tell whether it was a query or a table from here. You will need to go to a previous backup/older version of the database to find it.

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
