Microsoft Access Jet Engine could not find the object

Resolving The Problem

SYMPTOM:
The Microsoft Jet database engine could not find the object <objectname>.
or
Make sure the object exists and that you spell its name and the path name correctly.
or
Couldn't find object '<object name>'

CAUSE:
There is at least one database object with a backquote character (`) in its name in the version 1.x database. The backquote character, which is ASCII character 96, is not allowed in object names in Microsoft Access 97, 7.0, or
2.0. The backquote character is allowed in object names in Microsoft Access 1.x.

RESOLUTION:
Open the database in Microsoft Access 1.x and rename any object that contains a backquote character in its name before opening the database in Microsoft Access 97, 7.0 or 2.0.
