    Table Design frozen


    I have a tblMembers table. Sometimes if I try and change the name of a field by adding a couple of characters eg,(IDSponserFK to IDSponserFK99, Access locks the name and will not accept the 99 digits, Same for Field TYpe; I can select a different type but it will not accept it. Likewise if I try and change the field property from Integer to Long Integer. Anyone know what's going on????Thanks...

    is the table linked? if so, you cannot change names from the front end.
    is the table in use? nobody can be in it. close all forms linked to that table too.
