'''Important note:''' All functions in this section are ''updating functions'': they will not be immediately executed, but queued on the [[XQuery Update#Pending Update List|Pending Update List]], which will be processed after the actual query has been evaluated. This means that the order in which the functions are specified in the query does usually not reflect the order in which the code will be evaluated.

An existing database will be overwritten.<br/>Note that this operation is placed last on the [[XQuery Update#Pending Update List|Pending Update List]]: databases will be created after all other update operations have been performed. While this order may seem counter-intuitive, it is consistent with the XQuery Update Facility, because a database cannot be referenced before it has been created anyway.|-| '''Examples'''|* {{Code|db:create("DB")}} creates an empty database named {{Code|DB}}.|} ==db:dropadd==
