VBA in access

I have code to do various things in access, such as deleting fields, tables, etc.

The code consists of "snippets" of SQL, for example to delete fields F6 and F7:

strSQL = "ALTER TABLE [mytable] DROP COLUMN F6, F7"

CurrentDb().Execute strSQL, dbFailOnError

My question is how can this be done in access VBA, without using SQL statements and if so, would it be quicker?
