I cannot figure out how to delete a field from a table I had previously
created with dbsys.  Any idea what I am missing?  [please no comments about
"2 sandwiches short of a picnic"  ]  I even read the help, but didn't
see anything about how to delete a field from a table structure.

Thanks!...........   --Dean.

From the dbsys help file:

"This grid shows the field structure information for the table. You may
use the UP and DOWN arrow keys to move from field to field. If you move
past the last defined field in the grid you will be allowed to add a
new field at the end. You may also insert a new field anywhere by
pressing the INSERT key. To delete an existing field hold down the CTRL
key and press the DELETE key. You will be asked to confirm the field
deletion before the field is actually removed. "

Also, if you right-click on any of the components, there is context
sensitive help under "What's This?" The "What's This" help on the Alter
Table grid gives the same information as the help file.
