Tip: If You Delete a Family Table Inadvertently
After you delete a Family Table, you cannot undo the deletion. If you delete a Family Table inadvertently, the following are some suggestions for restoring it.
If you have not saved the model since deleting the Family Table, you can erase the model from current memory, close the window and then retrieve it. The Family Table will be intact.
If you have saved the model since deleting the Family Table, you can retrieve an earlier version of the model.
If you created the Family Table using Excel, you can link back to the original Excel file.
Before you delete the table, you can save it as a Pro/TABLE (.ptd) file using File > Export Table > PRO/TABLE file. Then, delete the table and close the file. When you reopen the file, you can then import the .ptd file using File > Import Table.
