De beste en meest efficiënte manier is om de uitzondering "tabel niet gevonden" op te vangen:dit vermijdt de overhead van het controleren of de tabel twee keer bestaat; en heeft geen last van het probleem dat als de DROP om een andere reden (die belangrijk kan zijn) mislukt, de uitzondering nog steeds wordt doorgegeven aan de beller:
BEGIN
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'DROP TABLE ' || table_name;
EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS THEN
IF SQLCODE != -942 THEN
RAISE;
END IF;
END;
