We're all happy for you Mariana. The fact that someone reveils this highly secret function of SQL server is woth an answer.

You managed to delete a record and so solving the problem.

Some people should really read other books than BOL.

Have a nice day!

Mariana, while I doubt I will be able to provide a response as constructive as rihardh I'll give it a shot...

Your exact problem is hard to ascertain from your post. What exactly are you trying to do, drop (delete) a table from the database or just a specific row?

Is there a specific error message you are getting? This will go a long way in helping us help you.

If you are having problems deleting a table due to a record then it sounds like you have declarative referential integrity (DRI) enabled. DRI would prevent you from deleting a table so you do not end up with orphan records in a related table. Does this sound like your situation?

Without knowing specifics we are going to need more info to help you out.

Justin
