But he doesn't want to change the position of the column. The only way I'd
see to do this (don't know why it would ever be important) is to copy all
the columns to the right of the old column along with the primary key to
another table, drop them, do your step, add the columns back, populate the
recreated columns from the new table.

Is there any way to rename a column without changing the position of column?
