Hi, I have a question.
Is it safe to create (add) a new column to an excisting table? I would want to add it at the end (far right) of the table and was wondering if it could give conflicts with excisting quiries in the website, if they somehow need to be updated or if I can just go ahead without any problems?

Thanks in advance!
Kind regards,
Sebas.

It could cause problems. Like inserting records into this table if you have insert statements that don't have the fields listed you'll get an error saying column count does not match. It should be ok though. YOu can always try it and delete it if it messes up the application.
