Sometimes we need to clear all the data in a table. One way to achieve this goal is the DROP TABLE instruction that we see on the SQL DROP page. But then the whole form disappears and can no longer be used. Another way is to use TRUNCATE TABLE instructions. Under this instruction, the data in the table will disappear completely, but the table itself will continue to exist. The syntax of TRUNCATE TABLE is as follows:
TRUNCATE TABLE "form name"
So, if we want to clear the data from the customer form created on the SQL Create Table page, we type in:
TRUNCATE TABLE Customer
