Deleting table sure remove your added controls inside CRYSTAL. I think you dont have any other option. May be you can create an Dummy table that resembles the structure(Not sure).

Adding tables inside Crystal report may be easy for an SINGLE TABLE reports. Why don't you try it by adding VIEWS for each report?. It will useful while you are generating reports by merging two or more tables.
