Private Sub RemoveTables()
   ' Set the name of the table to test for and remove.
   Dim strName As String = "Suppliers"
   ' Presuming a DataGrid is displaying more than one table, get its DataSet.
   Dim dSet As DataSet = CType(DataGrid1.DataSource, DataSet)
   Dim tablesCol As DataTableCollection = dSet.Tables
   If tablesCol.Contains(strName) _
   And tablesCol.CanRemove(tablesCol(strName)) Then 
      tablesCol.Remove(strName)
   End If
End Sub

private void RemoveTables()
{
   // Set the name of the table to test for and remove.

   DataTableCollection tablesCol = dSet.Tables;
   if (tablesCol.Contains(strName) && tablesCol.CanRemove(tablesCol[strName]))
