Hi everybody,
I'm using BCB6 and TADOComponents to quering a MS Access database.
First I create tables with the command:

"CREATE TABLE CatTable ([ID] AutoIncrement NOT NULL CONSTRAINT [PrimKey] 
PRIMARY KEY, [Nome] Text NULL)";

It should be better to know if a table named CatTable already exist 
before creating it.
How can I do this using TADOComponents?
If I'm not wrong SQL property of TADOQuery doesn't support the command 
"SHOW TABLES".
Thanks in advance.
Pat
