In the post at the top vb lite installation someone had the same problems with the tables as you are having. This was the remedy.

"Kewlphper: When you run the installer, click the link to EMPTY THE DATABASE, then see if it goes through okay."

And to come to think of it thats what I did when I had the same problem with the full version.
