Re: how grant privilege to drop table using SQL?

grant all on repcus_stage to public with grant option

Object ----------Object-----------
User Group Authority Opr Mgt Exist Alter Ref
*PUBLIC USER DEF X X X X
*GROUP QPGMR *ALL X X X X X

public got object mgmt rights, but not object existence rights.

I have code that drops a table and then recreates it by selecting from a
bunch of input tables. Sometimes an interactive user runs the code. So they
own the table. Other times the code is run from a PHP web service. So the
web user owns the table. Need the code that creates the table to grant
authority to public to be able to drop the table.

To drop a table I believe you have to have *OBJMGT capabilities against
that object. Therefore the person running the GRANT ALL has to have that
or it skips adding *OBJMGT to the target.
However if add "WITH GRANT OPTION" I believe it will add *OBJMGT.

in SQL, you can grant the public all rights to use a table:

GRANT ALL ON tableName TO PUBLIC
