If I want to add a column in for an amount in this form 10.00 would this script be proper?
[ALTER]
FILEMANAGER
ADD#F_AMOUNT#int#NULL#0.00
[END]
Thanks smile<

Ok I ran this script:

[ALTER]
FILEMANAGER
ADD#F_AMOUNT#varchar(11)#NULL#0.00
[END]
and it gave me this message:


[ALTER]
Database setup finished

But it was not added to the db where did I go wronge? <

it should be just

ADD#F_AMOUNT#varchar(11)#NULL
or
ADD#F_AMOUNT#varchar(11)#0.00

not
ADD#F_AMOUNT#varchar(11)#NULL#0.00<

I actually found a reply you made to someone on DBS scripts I have used that for reference just not sure what all the values mean yet. I had to google search on the definition of VARCHAR lol But I actually just went intot he DB and create the column that way and all is working smile
BUt that is good to have for future reference.<
