Recreate entity framework tables, not databases?

Question

Through the entity framework, I would like it to recreate my tables, and not my databases. The reason for this is that I have no permission to drop an entire database, whereas I do have permission to create and drop tables.

I don't think there is such an initializer for EF 4.1 from MS.

This comes closest to your needs:

class BlogContext : DbContext
{

    public BlogContext()
    {
        System.Data.Entity.Database.SetInitializer(new CreateDatabaseIfNotExists<BlogContext>());
    }

}
