Platforms:
All

Returns:
nothing
Notes:
-
After dropping a Data Source, the database table will automatically be recreated.
-
For linked Data Sources, CreateRecord must be called, at least once, for all linked Data Sources after a DropDataSource on any of the linked Data Sources.
-
You cannot use DropDataSource if the Data Source is locked because of an ongoing asynchronous data transfer. Use IsDataSourceLocked to check whether the table is locked before making a call to DropDataSource.
-
This Method is not relevant for Custom Views which can't be dropped.
