You are right on this to a certain extent, you either have to be the schema owner, or you need to have been granted the DROP ANY TABLE system privilege.

Have you satisfied both or either of these Raymond? If not, try it out..

Not 100% sure but I think only the table owner can use "TRUNCATE"

You can try the following , not sure if it will work though......let me know if it does... :-)

DECLARE

myCur          number;
mySQL          varchar2(2000);

BEGIN
mySQL := 'TRUNCATE TABLE (table_name)';
myCur := DBMS_SQL.open_cursor;
DBMS_SQL.PARSE(myCur, mySQL, DBMS_SQL.NATIVE); DBMS_SQL.CLOSE_CURSOR(myCur);
END; Regards,
Karthik
