dollar signs at the end of tables

Anyone know what's with dollar signs at the end of tables? One of my
clients has been "messing around" with his database, and I know he hasn't
got a clue. So now all the tables have been duplicated with the duplicates
having dollar signs at the end of the tables.
ex.
tblMytable
tblMytable$
Thanks,
JonIt's not actually my database, it's one of my clients, and I have absolutly
no idea what he did.
Thanks for the post though :-)

Hmm the further thought here would be... " have you actually asked him
what the f** he did?"
