CREATE TABLE

CREATE TABLE is used to create new database tables. To update the schema of an existing table, use ALTER TABLE. See Lesson 17 for more information.

CREATE TABLE tablename
(
       column    datatype    [NULL|NOT NULL]    [CONSTRAINTS],
       column    datatype    [NULL|NOT NULL]    [CONSTRAINTS],
       ...
);
