You should find paragraph mode ($/ = '';) very useful. 
local $/ = '';

while (<$fh>) {
   if (
      my ($table) = 
         /^ADD TABLE "([^"]+)"/
   ) {
      ...   
   }

   elsif (
      my ($field, $table, $type) =
         /^ADD FIELD "([^"]+)" OF "([^"]+)" AS (\w+)/
   ) {
      my ($format) = /^   FORMAT "([^"]+)"/m;
      ...
   }
}

And note the 'm' modifier on the regexp to change the meaning of '^'.
