Error message:<br />
Msg 208, Level 16, State 1, Line 1<br />
Invalid object name 'FEB11'.<br />
<br />
I am using SSMS to query the table.<br />
<br />
It is in the correct database.<br />
<br />
The error above was thrown after a simple SELECT * FROM FEB11<br />
<br />
FEB11 is the table name.<br />
<br />
I can view the records by right-clicking the table , then selecting 'Select top 1000 Rows'. I don't know why a query won't work.

I have imported a number of tables from Excel into SQL Server 2008. The tables are there, I have verified the data, I can access the data from &nbsp;a VB Grid Control. However, when I query one of the tables with a SELECT statement I get an error. Even a SELECT * FROM tableName throws the error. Any suggestions?
