Hi, I'm trying to create a sql file that you can query from a location on your computer. I want to be able to add fields to an already created table.

For example:

If A table is already created with fields 1,2, and 3, how do I insert fields 4 and 5?

I know how to manually do this, throught myphpadmin, but I'm trying to zip up a hackmod for a program and I'm trying to make it as simple as possible for the user to install it.

I don't the code. I've done some reading, but I think CREATE only creates a new table and INSERT puts info into the fields that are already there.

Thanks in advance for help.

ALTER is the SQL command you are looking for. Google against mysql.com for it and you will find the answers way better than I could explain them.
