Default How can I use VBA ADO to check if a table exists in an Access DB?

From a post by michelxld:

Dim cnn As New ADODB.Connection
Dim rsT As ADODB.Recordset
Dim Verif As Boolean
Dim dbName As String

Set cnn = New Connection
dbName = ("C:\Data\MYDataBase1.mdb")
With cnn
..Provider = "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0"
..Mode = adModeWrite
..Properties("Jet OLEDB:Database Password") = "abc"
..Open dbName
End With

Set rsT = cnn.OpenSchema(adSchemaTables)

Verif = False
While Not rsT.EOF
If rsT.Fields("TABLE_NAME") = "MYTABLE" Then Verif = True
rsT.MoveNext
Wend

If Verif = False Then
MsgBox "The Table does not Exist ."
Else
MsgBox "the table exists"
End If

cnn.Close
Set cnn = Nothing
Set rsT = Nothing

Hope this helps
