SYMPTOM
When attempting to delete a table alias in Strategy Developer 10.x, users may receive the following error:

Cannot delete '<table>' because other objects depend on it. Do you want to search the dependent objects?
When editing the table, an attribute appears as a key, however when editing that attribute and its forms, the table alias is not selected.
CAUSE
Although it is not evident through the interface, mappings created by attribute forms that were previously defined based on the Table Alias still exist in the attribute definition.
ACTION
Contact Strategy Technical Support for help on removing the attribute dependency
