Default Can't Remove table column

Hi
1. Just had XP installed and converting 97 database files
as I open them.
On some tables a column is inserted next to the primary
key fielsthat has a plus / expand sign which when clicked
seems to show another table.
Not sure what the purpose of this is or how useful. how
can I remove this column?
2. The Help menu doesn't seem to have the online help Book
like 97 is there no equivalent of this?

Help appreciated
Kit

Kit, that's the subdatasheet view. If your table is linked to another, the
subdatasheet view will show the records in that other table that correspond
to the current record. It can be quite useful.

If you want to remove it, go to the Menu Bar and Format Subdatasheet
Remove.
