# 31.6. Creating and Modifying Database Objects

To create, modify or drop a database object like a table or view you use the `execute()` method. This method is similar to the method `executeQuery()`, but it doesn't return a result. Example 31-7 illustrates the usage.

Example 31-7. Dropping a Table in JDBC

This example will drop a table.

    Statement st = db.createStatement();
    st.execute("DROP TABLE mytable");
    st.close();
