The DB-Api covers executin arbirary SQL - either DDL or DML. It is surely centered around DML, but that doesn't mean that its not usabel to issue "create ..." statements. >However, even if it did, I don't think > it would handle differences such as the following. <snip> All that has nocthing to do with teh API - you'd still need your differentiated DDL - but the communication with the programs would go away.
