hi
| Add a column
add an integer column:
alter table sometable add somecolumn int;
add an varchar column:
alter table sometable add somecolumn varchar(255);
see: mysql doc 7.8 Alter table syntax
| Alter a table to fit a different character lengths
|(say...unlimited in a 1 column)
simply specify the new column parameters:
alter table sometable modify tooshortcolumn varchar(255);
note: unlimited column length not exists.
if you need a realy BIG character type column try the text types
(text mediumtext, etc...)
see mysql doc: 7.3 Column types
sorry i can't understand this:
| Make a column have a check box instead of characters(VARCHAR...)
bye,
ati
