DROP FULLTEXT INDEX (Transact-SQL)

SQL Server 2008 R2

Removes a full-text index from a specified table or indexed view.

Topic link icon Transact-SQL Syntax Conventions

Copy 

DROP FULLTEXT INDEX ON table_name
table_name

Is the name of the table or indexed view containing the full-text index to be removed.

You do not need to drop all columns from the full-text index before using the DROP FULLTEXT INDEX command.

The user must have ALTER permission on the table or indexed view, or be a member of the sysadmin fixed server role, or db_owner or db_ddladmin fixed database roles.

The following example drops the full-text index that exists on the JobCandidate table.

Copy 
USE AdventureWorks2008R2;
GO
DROP FULLTEXT INDEX ON HumanResources.JobCandidate;
GO
