You're using MS Access, if I recall correctly.  Here's how to get the
table names.  (This is based on previous responses by others to the same
question).

First go to Tools -> Options -> click on Hidden Objects and System
Objects,
then go back to Tools -> Security -> User and Group permissions ->
highlight
the MSSysObjects table and then check the Read Data check box, then click
OK.

<cfquery datasource="myDatasource" name="qTables"> 
SELECT MSysObjects.Name FROM MSysObjects 
WHERE (((MSysObjects.Flags)=0) AND ((MSysObjects.Type)=1)) 
ORDER BY MSysObjects.Name 
</cfquery> 

Another variant of the SQL is:

SELECT name 
FROM MSysObjects 
WHERE TYPE=1 and
left(MSysObjects.name,4) <> 'MSys'

FYI, here's what that "type" means:
Type 1 = Table
Type 6 =  Attached Tables
Type -32768 = Forms
Type 5 = Queries
Type -32764 = Reports
Type -32761 = Modules
