drop schema problems

[Ian Dobson]

Hi, I need to drop a schema from a database but it has 400 tables in it.

Is there an easy way to do it other than
drop table schema1.table1
drop table schema1.table2
etc.. to 400 and then
drop schema schema1?

thanks

Unfortunately, no (unless you can drop the tablespace(s) that have these
objects).

You can, however, write SQL to generate your drop statements:

select
'drop table ' || rtrim(tabschema) || '.' || tabname
from
syscat.tables
where
tabschema = 'SCHEMA1' and
type = 'T'

Good luck,
