    Dim tbl As New Table  
    Dim cat As New ADOX.Catalog  
  
    ' Open the Catalog.  
    cat.ActiveConnection = "Provider='Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0';" & _  
        "Data Source='Northwind.mdb';"  
  
    tbl.Name = "MyTable"  
    tbl.Columns.Append "Column1", adInteger  
    tbl.Columns.Append "Column2", adInteger  
    tbl.Columns.Append "Column3", adVarWChar, 50  
    cat.Tables.Append tbl

    cat.Tables.Delete tbl.Name  
    Debug.Print "Table 'MyTable' is deleted."  
  
    'Clean up  
    Set cat.ActiveConnection = Nothing  
    Set cat = Nothing  
    Set tbl = Nothing  
    Exit Sub  
  
CreateTableError:  
  
    Set cat = Nothing
