# Alter View Tool

The Alter View Tool allows users to alter views by changing the view query using drop and create SQL statements.

Listed below is example SQL generated by the Alter View Tool.

DROP VIEW public.employee_view
CREATE VIEW public.employee_view
(ssn,fname,minit,lname,address,sex,salary,superssn,dno)
AS SELECT employee.ssn, employee.fname, employee.minit,
employee.lname, employee.address, employee.sex, employee.salary,
employee.superssn, employee.dno FROM employee;

The SQL alter view tool generates the DDL for the view in a database specific way. It is aware of the differences in view creation for the various databases.
