Sheeri,

Personally, I use ALTER TABLE for everything I can . . . I don't use CREATE INDEX, DROP INDEX, RENAME TABLE, etc. Maybe for SQL standard compliance?

AFAIK, the SQL standard has no commands for renaming objects.

And indexes are not defined by the standard - they are only part of the physical schema and do not provide any information to the logical schema.

Cool, this is good to know, Roy, thx. So, I guess this is going to come down to the following decision:

Is the "ease of use" of the RENAME TABLE (and in future, RENAME SCHEMA) command worth the current different code paths and complexity?
