Hi,

Along with that message i think u will get 'ok' and 'delete' button will come..

please click on delete button.

but make sure that the table field is not using any where after deleting the table. other wise dependent programs will give dump.

Hi,

If you have created a data element for it. Make changes in the data element and activate. Then activate the table once. Your table will have the new data type.
