Oh I thought you mean remove the veneer and keep the particle board. Putting in a whole new piece of wood does sound easier. Need to have a fiddle with the fixings and see.
Funnily enough I've just that exact same thing with my ikea bedside tables, the board had water damage and I had some spare oak left over from another project. Turned out quite nice
Probably a bit more of a challenge doing a big table though.

So yeah, isn't it just screwed to the base? Most of the time it's a pretty straightforward attachment. Like I said, just take it off, chuck it (or repurpose it) and get a new piece finished to your heart's delight.
Maybe I'm missing something, but that's never happened before.
