[ic] adding table columns, HOW?

[Rick Bragg]

Hi,

you can just add them!! literally!! if your using the foundation demo, 
try to use what is already there, but you can add or take away any 
"fields" you want!! One thing that I do is use filemaker to build the 
products database, then export to tab delimited text, then after adding 
the first row of field labels to the text file, I use the admin 
interface to "import" the new products.txt file.

If you edit the products.txt file directly, make sure that you remove 
the products.gdbm file, then restart interchange.
