>>>Morning all,

>>>somehow, somewhere a table still thinks it is apart of the database. It is in fact a free table. I need a way to remove the table from the DBC in code. I have tried REMOVE TABLE, but the code executes with out error (In a Try/Catch), but the Catch statement does not fire when it detects the unresolved back link. When the ENDTRY statement is reached, then the back link error occurs to the user. I need a snip of code to break the link so the user does not know.

FREE TABLE is for exactly when VFP thinks a table is in a database, but it isn't.
