Re:How to remove forms and it's tables

If you can't see it in the table view of the catalogue either it might be tricky.

Depending on how old your DE8 is you should be able to delete any form/table from the Catalogue (used to be not so easy, so the problem might be that your DE8 is too old).

However there are more ways to do this.

If the catalogue venue is blocked you can try to create a DQL to do it.

simply:

Delete table "Tablename" .

And run it.

if it is locked it might help to restart the computer. Make sure nobody else is logged into the application.

If nothing helps and you are ready to tear your hair out you should consider going in all guns blazing and try the approach described here.

Just make sure you take a copy/backup first in case you mess up the RDRR file.
