Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.misc -> How to remove a non-used column from an existing table
Hi all,
I don't know if I can do it but I'd like to remove a column from an existing table but I don't find the syntax anywhere. I tried
ALTER TABLE mytable DROP COLUMN mycolumn
but I receive this message :
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00905: missing keyword
Can I remove a column from an existing table or if I have to recreate the table without this column ?
Thx,
