Any command that does not begin with SHAPE is passed through to the data provider. This is equivalent to issuing a shape command in the form "SHAPE {provider command}". These commands do not have to produce a Recordset. For instance, "SHAPE {DROP TABLE MyTable} is a perfectly valid shape command, assuming the data provider supports DROP TABLE.
This capability allows both normal provider commands and shape commands to share the same connection and transaction.
