Syntax
Usage
Use this statement to drop a text filter.
Dropping a text filter that is in use may cause large amounts of text to be included in the text index. For example, if you included a CLOB column containing HTML in a text index that relied on an HTML text filter to remove all formatting prior to indexing, then removing the HTML text filter will cause the formatting to be subsequently included in the text index whenever the CLOB column is updated.
