Reserved Words

A List of Reserved Words

In this tutorial you will learn about the Reserved Words in Access.

I need to compile this list into one but for now here are them separately.

  • Reserved Words in Access 2002 or later
  • Jet 4.0
  • ANSI-92 Reserved Words
  • MS Query

If you are going to use these, which I don't advise, wrap them in square brackets ([]) when using them in a Query etc.


Microsoft have supplied a handy list of Reserved Words in Access 2002 or later.

Starting with Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) version 2.6, MDAC no longer contains the following Jet components:

  • Microsoft Jet
  • Microsoft Jet OLE DB Provider
  • ODBC Desktop Database Drivers
For additional information, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
239114 How to obtain the latest service pack for the Microsoft Jet 4.0 Database Engine

The MDAC 2.5 Stack and Windows File Protection white paper contains a full list of the components that are shipped with MDAC 2.5, along with a discussion of Windows File Protection. Refer to this white paper for more information about the Jet dynamic-link libraries (DLLs) that are included in MDAC 2.5, which are no longer a part of MDAC 2.6.

For more information about MDAC 2.5 and Windows File Protection, see the following Microsoft Web site:
