Hi
I haven't done this for a while, but here goes ....
- Use Tools/Analyse/Documenter
- Select Tables Tab
- Check the tables to document (maybe one at a time?)
- There is a place to set the attributes you want
(name,type,field length, decimals,etc)
- Run the documenter
- Save the output as a table (Access assigns a table name
like object_definition)
- Export the objects table to text
..... phew, hope it works for you
