upsize_ts column in legacy database - what does it mean?

Hi,

 

"upsize_ts" column is created when upgrading MS Access database to MSSQL using Upsizing wizard:

 

Upsizing is the process of migrating some or all database objects from a Microsoft Access database (.mdb) to a new or existing Microsoft SQL Server database or new Microsoft Access project (.adp).The upsize wizard documentation mentions following:Timestamp Columns By default, the Upsizing Wizard creates new columns with the data type of timestamp in SQL Server tables generated from Microsoft Access tables that contain floating-point (single or double), Memo, or OLE fields.Can we delete that column?This field should not be deleted if database will still be used by MS Access (which is case for our app).
