If you no longer need a table or its contents, then you can drop the table using Object Browser. Be certain that you do not need the data in the table before you drop it. It may be difficult and time-consuming to retrieve the records, if they can be retrieved, after you execute the drop operation.

To test this procedure, follow the procedure in "Creating a Table" to create a table.

To drop a table:

1. Log in to the Database Home Page. See "Logging in to the Database Home Page".

2. On the Database Home Page, click the Object Browser icon.

3. In the Object list, select Tables then click the personal_info table that you previously created.

4. Click Drop.

5. Click the Finish button to complete the action.
