I kind of thought collection came first. CREATE SCHEMA, according to a v4r5 manual, includes the CREATE COLLECTION part and a part for defining other objects, as described in this quote -

The CREATE SCHEMA statement defines a collection and optionally creates tables, views, aliases, indexes, and distinct types.

There's more, like authorities and comments and all.

CREATE DATABASE is a synonym for CREATE COLLECTION - might be a distinction around and IDDU - I don't remember.

I see that both SCHEMA and COLLECTION were in use at v3r2.

When did "schema" get changed to "collection"? Why?

It looks like the STRSQL screens will accept either.
