A schema is a collection of database objects. A schema is owned by a database user and has the same name as that user. Schema objects are the logical structures that directly refer to the database's data.

Schemas are edited within Schema Editor. In order to run the editor you should either

•	select the schema for editing in the explorer tree (type the first letters of the schema name for quick search);

•	select the Edit Schema... item from the popup menu

•	open the database in Database Editor and the Schemas tab there;

•	select the schema to edit;

•	press the Enter key or select the Edit Schema item from the popup menu (alternatively, you may use the corresponding link of the Navigation Bar).

You can change the name of the schema using the Rename Schema dialog. To open the dialog you should either

•	select the schema to rename in the explorer tree;

•	select the Rename Schema item from the popup menu

•	open the database in Database Editor and the Schemas tab there;

•	select the schema to rename;

•	select the Rename Schema item from the popup menu (alternatively, you may use the corresponding link of the Navigation Bar).

To drop a schema:

•	select the schema to drop in the explorer tree;

•	select the Drop Schema item from popup menu

•	open the database in Database Editor and the Schemas tab there;

•	select the schema to drop;

•	press the Delete key or select the Drop Schema item from the popup menu (alternatively, you may use the corresponding link of the Navigation Bar)

and confirm dropping in the dialog window.
