Access 2007 Documenter trouble

[mary r]

Hi all-

A customer has upgraded to Access 2007 and wants some customization done on
one of the templates. I've intalled (trial) 2007 on my own machine,
downloaded the template, and started the documenter. Unfortunately, I'd
forgotten to close a form when I invoked the documenter, so it failed.

Now, when I try to run the documenter again, I get an error: "Table
doc_tblObjects exists."

How do I clear this so I can run it again? The Microsoft documentation
hasn't helped at all.

TIA-

Remove the template and install the template again then give it another try.
If that doesn't help try adding a letter to the tablename so it doesn't get
recognized (you can always chang that back to it's original name if it might
give any trouble.

Thanks, Maurice. I did decide to reinstall the template after all - had to
bag all the customization I'd done so far, but oh well.

I couldn't change the tablename because doc_tblObjects was not visible in
the Tables listing, and I had locking problems running code to list the
hidden tables. (I have the software-upgrade blues; changes are seldom as
intuitive as the vendors claim, especially in the change from 2003 to 2007.)

If deleting & reinstalling the template doesn't help, I'll be posting again!
