Deleting table catalogs

You can permanently remove a table catalog so that it is no longer available to any flowcharts in any campaigns.

About this task

Removing a table catalog deletes the .cat file, which points to database tables and possibly flat files. Removing a table catalog does not affect the underlying tables in the database. However, it does permanently remove the catalog file.

Important: Only use the Campaign interface to remove table catalogs or perform table operations. If you remove tables or change table catalogs directly in the file system, Campaign cannot guarantee data integrity.
