I logon with SA account, and the index does exist.
DROP INDEX MyIndex ON MyTable:
Cannot drop index because it doesn't exist or you don't have permission
ALTER TABLE MyTable DROP INDEX MyIndex
Incorrect syntax near 'index'. If this is intended as part of a table hint, A WITH keyword and parenthesis are now required.
I am completely lost.
