The reason why you would want do to do this is because, like in database procedures, you can't use DDL such as DROP TABLE 'table_name' directly in PL/SQL with Forms. The way to do it is with the buit-in EXEC_SQL package. The same thing can also be accomplished with the FORMS_DDL built-in but that only applies to the current database connection, with the EXEC_SQL package it’s possible to have database connections to multiple databases and also execute non-oracle database procedures.
