Go to the Database Expert.  On the left hand side, find the database you've logged in to and you should see "Add Command" as the first entry under the database name.

Also, some databases don't allow you to add commands if you use their native database driver. But if you use an ODBC connection then they will let you. Of course, SQL Server allows this and you should see it where Deld mentions it. But if you have a less common database then you might not be able to do it.
