title: Table not visible but accessible in SQL Server
body: <p>I am using SQL Server 2016 Management Studio, and I encounter something that I haven't seen before and I probably just need some explanation no technical coding involved.</p>
  
  <p>So I was working on some query and need to find tables and usually I check Object Explorer and directly right click table for the first 1000 records. I was joining my claims table with another table for amounts paid column, and I couldn't locate my second table.</p>
  
  <p>I could use <code>select *</code> to get the columns of the table, but it is not visible in my object explorer. Not sure if I am blocked from viewing, but this is my first time seeing it.</p>
  
  <p>I am showing you where my claims table ends and right after it is the Communication table. </p>
