Stephane, the idea of dropping and re-creating tables is simply
preposterous. If the tables involved are bigger then 50M, then
such procedure is not practical. Anyway, I don't see why would
the table need to be dropped/re-created now when we can drop columns
and move/rebuild tables. Fortunately for me, I am 6'4", 250 LBS, former
greko-roman wrestler, so not many people do come up with such ideas on
Friday afternoon.

Hi,
I do not know if it's friday afternoon or what ?
The developpers want me to regenerate the grants in
the development environment because they're running a
script that drops and recreates a new version of the
tables.
I asked them : Could you do an alter table instead ?
The developpers : What ! they'are at least 10 new
fields !
I used to be a developper, I do not remember myself
dropping and recreating everything each time I add a
new field . Anyway in production, only the new stuff
goes in.
Any comments ?
