Answer:
You can loop through the TableDefs collection, which is a property of the Database object. Those are all the tables in the currently active database. You can add them into the list box with the AddItem method. Here’s an example:
Dim db as DatabaseDim td as TableDefSet db = OpenDatabase(“Filename”)ListBox.ClearFor Each td In db.TableDefs ListBox.AddItem td.Name db.TableDefs.MoveNextLoop
