Are you referring to the SQL99 command, as found in Postgres, for example? If so, that command is implemented in Oracle by several clauses, mostly in the CREATE TABLE command. For example, that's where you set the default value, whether or not the column can be null, or check constraints. Another portion of the SQL99 command is implemented in Oracle as database objects (types and such).
