Browse Source

<para>
<command>DROP TABLE</command> removes tables and views from the database.
Only its owner may destroy a table or view. A table
may be emptied of rows, but not destroyed, by using <command>DELETE</command>.
</PARA>

</para>
<para>
If a table being destroyed has secondary indexes on it,
they will be removed first. The removal of just a
secondary index will not affect the contents of the underlying table.
