To delete a table:
- On the TABLE tab, in the Maintenance group, click Table, and Delete Table to open a dialog box with a drop-down list of all open tables.
- Choose the table you want to delete from this list and click the Delete button.
- Click OK.
Deleting a table allows you to remove the .TAB file and all component files associated with the table.
Deleting a raster table only deletes the *.tab file. Deleting a grid file removes both the *.tab and grid file. Deleting a GeoPackage table deletes the *.tab file and all associated component files. If a GeoPackage has only one table, using this command will delete only the table and associate files, not the GeoPackage file.
