Need a sql query for Access database(metadata.mdb) having more than 100 tables to get the name of all tables starting with "xyz_".

What I have tried:

1.SELECT Name
FROM MSysObjects
WHERE Type=1 AND Flags=0;
But i am getting all tables in the access database, I need only tables starting with name "xyz_".

3.SELECT Name
FROM MSysObjects
WHERE Name LIKE 'xyz_%' OR Name LIKE 'abc_%';
But i am getting no output on run in Access Database even though database have table names starting with "xyz_" and "abc_".
