I am a student and I have a problem. I created a couple of tables and then decided I didn't need these tables afterall. I deleted them and went on to creat the rest of my database in the diagram view. I am trying to save the diagram ( thereby creating the new tables) but the system says I can't save because of the two previously created and deleted tables have been changed.

error message:
"Saving changes is not permitted. The changes you have made require the following tables to be dropped and re-created. You have either made changes to a table that can't be recreated or enabled the option Prevent saving changes that require the table to be re-created."

How can I fix this without having to redo all my work.
Thanks for your help.
Diane

Found the solution right after I posted this.

This is by design and can be quickly fixed in Management Studio by unchecking a property. To fix this in Management Studio, go to Tools -> Options then go to the Designer Page and uncheck "Prevent saving changes that require table re-creation".
