Do you mean from within cf? If you are only interested in the column names
(and not the datatypes)....

<cfquery name="getColumnList" datasource="dsn" >
        Select * from mytable where id = 0
</cfquery>

<cfset tableList = getColumnList.columnList >

There are also some system tables you can query which will give you the
names but the names escape me, have a look inside the database. Its been a
long time since I've used access but I believe there is a setting which you
can enable to view the system tables.

Subject: Access column names

I saw this question earlier, but I don't think it was answered.

Is there a syntax that you can pass to a MS Access Db to get a list of
column names for a particular table?
