Identify the Number of Tables/Views in an Account via ODBC

Users would sometimes want to know how many tables are existing in their account. On the documented list of tables, there is no specific table that contains this information.

By using Microsoft Excel, it is possible to retrieve this information using the System Tables > OA_TABLES.
