The DROP RULE statement deletes the specified rule. Scope | |
ISQL or Application Programs SQL Syntax | |
DROP RULE [Owner.] RuleName [ FROM TABLE [Owner.]TableName] Parameters | |
- [Owner.]RuleName
identifies the rule to be dropped.
- [Owner.]TableName
identifies the table the rule is defined on.
Description | |
If a TableName is specified, the rule must exist on that table or an error will be returned.
If no TableName is specified, the rule is located and dropped. Since rule names are unique per owner, not per table, there is no ambiguity in references to RuleName.
The DROP RULE statement invalidates stored sections that have dependencies defined upon the table the rule is defined on. This will permit the rule to be removed when the sections are revalidated.
The procedure a rule invokes will not be affected by the removal of that rule.
If no rule owner is specified and no table is specified, the default
owner is the current DBEUserID.
If no rule owner is specified and a table is specified, the default
rule owner is the table owner.
If a table is specified and no owner is specified for it, the default
table owner is the current DBEUserID.
The table and rule owners must be the same.
Authorization | |
You can issue this statement if you have OWNER authority for the rule
or if you have DBA authority. Example | |
DROP RULE PurchDB.InsertReport
DROP RULE PurchDB.DeleteReport
DROP RULE PurchDB.UpdateReport
