Delete object by table reference

I have a series of notes spawning, and currently, when a new note spawns, the existing one seems to be inaccessible. I need away to say
[lua]object:removeSelf(noteTable[1])[/lua]

is this valid?
if not, how else could i delete from a table?
thanks, will post code if needed. [import]uid: 59735 topic_id: 21984 reply_id: 321984[/import]

Try:

  
Notetable[1]:removeSelf()
