What I do is this:

set tablevalidate to 0
set exclusive on
open database........
remove table .....    the one giving you trouble
use ...... that table
append blank
go bottom
delete (the blank record)
pack
use
rebuild the indexes
add table .....

Once added, remember to change the primary key from candidate to 
primary, since it will be changed automatically to candidate when you 
remove the table from the database
