Deleting Custom Field In a Custom Object of a Managed Release

Am I missing something? there appears to be no way to do this. I need to delete a tracking number field from an Order Custom Object. It allows me to edit it but does not allow me to delete. The problem is that its not a one to one relatioship. So I created a tracking object and made it a related list. That works fine but its not giving me any option to delete the old custom field that was existing before and now useless to the application.

Correct, I do not believe you can delete a custom field that is part of a Managed Released package. You can find more details here.

ok so how do i get rid of it. Is there anyway without starting completely over with a new package which would be a nightmare this has alot of clients already using it.

The Spring '14 release notes say this will be possible in the Spring '14 release.
