You cannot delete any column to a table. But you can add by ALTER command.

Tou shoul drop and re-create the table.

You can use desc <table_name> and edit spool file (use spool before that. So, you are not required to write all column names and definitions.) Received on Fri May 23 1997 - 00:00:00 CDT
