Subject: drop table where tableName like 'backup_2007%' ?
Date: Mon, 31 Mar 2008 10:48:27 -0400
Message-ID: <47F0F9BB.3060706@encs.concordia.ca> (raw)

Good morning,


Is there a command to drop tables whose name begins a specific string?


For example, all backup tables begins with backup_2007:
Drop table where tableName like 'backup_2007%'?


Thanks a lot!
