<introEmbed body={<> Don't use sys as a prefix for Access tables. Some developers use this for system tables etc. SQL Server uses tables with this prefix and it becomes confusing. We recommend system tables start with **zs** - E.g. zsUsers </>} />

See our Rules to Better SQL Server Databases - Do you add zs prefix to system tables?
