I suggest using an ALTER TABLE SQL statement - look up ALTER TABLE in access
help (JET SQL) (I always create the statement  on my development box - test
it does what I want, then run it through a CF page on the live box...)

Subject: Making changes to a live Database


Hi,

I have a small change to make to a live database (create a new column in a
table) which is in Access.  I don't really want to download it and upload it
again, as I will undoutedly lose data (or visitors will get an error).  So I
was wondering what people's experiences are of this kind of situation and
how best to handle it.
