There's another table overlaying my spreadsheet on the Numbers app?

Had this issue before but didn't record how to solve it. Running Sequoia 15.3, with all the latest updates on my Apple M3 laptop. There's a "shadow' table overlaying my existing table. I know how to identify it and move it off the main spreadsheet, but I can't delete it.

It is easy to accidentally copy paste a table on top of itself. That is most likely what you are seeing. If that is what it is, the one on top should be the copy so hopefully you haven't been entering data in it. Right click on the sheet tab and choose the table name that has the same name as your original but with a "-1" at the end of the name. Delete.
