The instructions below show you how to add a new column to the table tblVeterinarians, using a SQL script typed manually. The new column should be called "Email" and its data type should be varchar(50).

6.Press Space, and then press Ctrl+Space to manually trigger auto-completion.
7.Select "tblVeterinarians" from the list and press Space.
8.Continue creating the SQL statement until you have typed the following text:
ALTER TABLE [tblVeterinarians] ADD Email VARCHAR (50) |
9.Execute the SQL statement by clicking the Execute
