How can we help you? Do you have some kind of db-front (like MySQL-front or phpMyAdmin)
What do you mean by field? I suppose you mean a column?
Did you look into the alter table syntax?

Thanks, I will look into doing it that way. What I did was drop then make again :$. the lazy and very dangerous way
