in reply to SQL table recreation

I also don't know what you mean by re-create, but could use something like this:
$rv = $dbh->do($statement); $rv = $dbh->do($statement, \%attr); $rv = $dbh->do($statement, \%attr, @bind_values); #quoted for perldoc DBI
to use dml and ddl statements that will not return values
like create table and insert statements.
