Modify the table using standard SQL scripts...

ALTER TABLE YourTable ADD COLUMN ColumnName Text(255)

This will add a column of type text with a 255 character limit to your
table.

Subject: access db


I have a client today that is switching their CF site built with an access
db to our servers, along with that they needed for me to build an upload
function for a spreadsheet, the xls name is going to be stored in the db. I
need to add that column.

BUT, the darn thing is locked. Simple enough run a select query on
non-existent table calling the data source. NO GO, will not unlock. Ok, try
the db connection flush tag, NO GO. Ok, unclick maintain db connections in
admin, NO GO. Ok, restart services, NO GO. I checked all office computers
nobody has it open. I have stopped the website in IIS so no users could
connect, NO GO.

Is there any other way to unlock the database? This is one of the reasons I
tried to talk the client out of access, but again NO GO.

If you have any suggestions it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Bryan
