Access 2010: unable to view hidden tables and ribbon tabs issue

Question

I've been working on an Access 2007 database in Access 2010. This was not written by me and I don't know the person who did write it so asking them is not an option.

The only tab I see is home and I cannot view hidden tables like MsysObjects. Is this some sort of read-only version? Are forms blocking what I want to see?

Answer 1

Open the database whilst holding down the shift button.
