I have no way to test what you're doing, but consider changing:
Code:
.IF ACTIVITYCOUNT = 1 THEN .GOTO DROP_TAB;

to:
Code:
.IF ACTIVITYCOUNT = 0 THEN .GOTO LOG_OUT;

and adding:
Code:
.LABEL LOG_OUT;

just before the line:
Code:
.LOGOFF

Given the format of all of your other bteq statements, should there be a semicolon at the end of the .LOGOFF statement?

I can't tell, as I have no command of bteq nor any idea of what values ACTIVITYCOUNT can assume nor what these represent, and what action should follow on either of those.
Did you understand what I alluded to and how you would / could change the program flow?
BTW, other languages use = for an assignment, and == for a comparison operation. You might want to check what bteq requires.

shell variables are not expanded inside single quotes. Try:
Code:
SELECT count(*) from dbc.tables where databasename = "${SCHE_NAME}" and tablename = "${tab_name}"

[..]
As a side note: in this case the single quotes are not relevant for the expansion, because they are situated inside an unquoted here-doc, so the variables are expanded and the results are placed inside the single quotes..

Did you try something like :

Code:
[...]
.IF ACTIVITYCOUNT = 1 THEN .GOTO DROP_TAB;   
.GOTO LOG_ME_OFF
.LABEL DROP_TAB;
DROP TABLE ${SCHE_NAME}.${tab_name};  
.LABEL LOG_ME_OFF
.LOGOFF
.QUIT;   
 EOBTQ 
[...]

or

Code:
[...]
.IF ACTIVITYCOUNT = 1 THEN DROP TABLE ${SCHE_NAME}.${tab_name};
.LOGOFF
.QUIT;
[...]

Maybe I'm missing the point, but what's wrong with ignoring the test and just trying to drop the table anyway. You can add the IF EXISTS to avoid getting error messages if it doesn't. it could be as simple as this:-
Code:
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS ${TABLE_NAME} ;




I hope that this helps, but I apologise if I've missed the point.
