in thread DBI, add fields to existing table?

Just to extend a little bit. Basically there are two types of database "languages" - DDL and DML. DML (Data Manipulate Language) is a set of statements that can be used to operate on the data, for example insert/delete/update. DDL (Data Definition Language) is a set of statements used to operate on the definition of database components, for example create/alter.
