Dropping tables

In the namespace of SQL, you do not delete tables or databases, you drop them. When you drop a table, you permanently delete both its structure and its data.

To drop a table:

  1. Select the database you want to work with from DBManager Home.
  2. Click Manage Database. phpMyAdmin launches.
  3. Click the database name above the table list.
  4. Click the Drop button for the table you want to get rid of.
