DESCRIPTION

       v.db.droptable removes an existing attribute table from a given  vector
       map  linked  at  given  layer.  If  the -f force flag is not given then
       nothing is removed.

       The existing database connection(s) can be verified with v.db.connect.

EXAMPLE

       Removing attribute table connected to layer 1:

       g.copy vect=roadsmajor,myroads
       v.db.droptable myroads
       v.db.droptable myroads -f
       v.db.connect -p myroads
