I have created a local table in Access 2016 named rptLeqTable.

I tried to rename the table in the Access Navigation Pane.

After renaming the newly created table from rptLeqTable to rptMetricsTable, I looked at the Table Properties.

The table properties still shows the original table name and refers to it as a

Shortcut to Table (Local): rptLeqTable.

There is no entry in the Navigation Pane for an object named rptLeqTable.

Is there any way to rename the actual local table (and not just the shortcut)?

CodePudding user response：

You are renaming the shortcut in a custom category group you have created:

Go to Object view, Tables, and rename the table itself.
