Inserting a Column to preexisting table in phpmyadmin

Question

I want to add a column to preexisting table. Can I add it in between two existing columns? I am working on phpmyadmin.

Answer 1

The ordering of columns in MySQL isn't of much importance. As for adding a new column,

ALTER TABLE `tblName`
    ADD COLUMN `colName` INT(10) AFTER `firstCol`;

The AFTER clause defines the position where your new column will come.
