<h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>

<em>db.droptable</em> drops an attribute table.
If the <b>-f</b> force flag is not given then nothing is removed, instead
a preview of the action to be taken is printed.

<h2>NOTES</h2>

<em>db.droptable</em> is a front-end to <em>db.execute</em> to allow easier
usage. To some extent it is verified if the table is connected to a vector map
to avoid accidential table removal.

<h2>EXAMPLE</h2>

Removing an attribute table:
<p><div class="code"><pre>
# show available tables
db.tables -p

# this will show what would happen
db.droptable table=sometable

# actually drop the table
db.droptable -f sometable
</pre></div>
