Deleting a Table Variable

When a variable is no longer needed, it can either be left in RateManager or deleted. When you delete a variable, it gets deleted from all versions of the program. Also, all revisions of that variable get deleted. If you are uncertain as to whether the variable will be used again, simply leave it in RateManager. This saves time if the variable is needed and does not slow down rating.

  1. Select the variable you want to delete. Right click it and select Delete.
