Best Answer

Go to the Design View for the table. Then click on the field name for the column you want to get rid of and press the delete key. It will prompt you to make sure you want to do it, as you will lose the data in it if you do. Click OK if you want to and it will be gone. When you next open the table, the column will no longer be in it.
