My event log table has 75,000 records.  It is so big i am unable to clear the records.  I have switched the events to log using the file system instead of Db but i need to clear this Event Log table.  My DB is 600MB.  Can i just delete the table?  if not, how can i clear this?

i assume i am supposed to replace the brackets with some unique information.  can you spell it out for me?

I got this error:
