Description: DROP PROCEDURE removes an existing stored procedure definition from a database.

Procedures used by other procedures, triggers, or views cannot be dropped. Procedures currently in use cannot be dropped.

In isql, SHOW PROCEDURE displays a list of procedures’ dependencies, the procedures, triggers, exceptions, and tables that use the procedures.

A procedure can be dropped by its creator, the SYSDBA user, or any user with operating system root privileges.

Example: The following isql statement deletes a procedure:

DROP PROCEDURE GET_EMP_PROJ;
