>From the 'mysql' command-line client, do: use DATABASE_NAME; ... where DATABASE_NAME is the name of your database ... and then ... alter table TABLE_NAME add MyTimeStamp timestamp(14); ... and change TABLE_NAME to the name of your table. This will put a timestamp field called 'MyTimeStamp' at the end of your table. You should then relink your tables in Access, using the 'linked table manager', or simply delete the linked table ( in Access ) and relink it. -- Daniel Kasak IT Developer NUS Consulting Group Level 5, 77 Pacific Highway North Sydney, NSW, Australia 2060 T: (+61) 2 9922-7676 / F: (+61) 2 9922 7989 email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] website: http://www.nusconsulting.com.au -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
