Hey everyone, quick question, can anyone help me turn this code into something I can use in the DBI class to create a database if a button on a form is clicked. I have managed to make the button work, but am having trouble combining these two codes, although, there may be another one i should use instead of "do"

This is the code i want to run off a form button: 
    

CREATE DATABASE cag_repeat; 
 
DROP TABLE cag_repeat.CAG_MAIN; 
 
CREATE TABLE cag_repeat.CAG_MAIN 
 
( 
 
   ID          INT(10)       NOT NULL auto_increment, 
 
   SEQUENCE_NAME  VARCHAR(100)  NOT NULL, 
 
   SEQUENCE        TEXT          NOT NULL, 
 
   NOREPEATS      VARCHAR(100)  NOT NULL, 
   LOCATION       VARCHAR(100)  NOT NULL, 
   WARNINGLVL     VARCHAR(20)   NOT NULL, 
   PRIMARY KEY (ID) 
 
);

And this is what i believe could work, but i dont know the syntax to make it work:
(using this do command to actually run the code above, instead of using it like it is below to insert data into the database) 
    

############################# Insert Into Database ###################
+########## 
 
my $dbh = DBI->connect($dsn, $user, $password) or die "Unable to conne
+ct: $DBI::errstr\n"; 
 
my $row = $dbh->do("INSERT INTO cag_repeat.CAG_MAIN 
(SEQUENCE_NAME,SEQUENCE,NOREPEATS,LOCATION,WARNINGLVL) 
VALUES('$seqname','$sequence','$len','$amino_acid_number','$riskeval')
+;"); 
 
$dbh->disconnect();
