Is your query in a front-end and the table in a back-end? If so, make
sure they're linked correctly. I recently tried creating a query and
couldn't find see the tables after I had added them. Didn't receive any
kind of error message or anything; scrolled all over the place and still
couldn't find them. I finally realized I hadn't re-linked my tables.

Hi Kathy,

No the tables have not been split... and they defintely were linked
correctly.

Unfortunately for me one of the tables could not be seen. The only way that
I could see them, was as John pointed out was to copy the SQL into a new
query and switch to design view. Then the all tables were able to be seen...
Just doesn't figure does it!!

cheers,

many thanks for your input though,
