I have an app with about 130 programs that access Table "A" and we're adding a column or two to it, appending to the existing structure. Said fields are not indexed in any way.</span></div><div><span></span> </div><div>Thanks for any information.</div><div> </div><div><b><div><span><b><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"></font></b></span> </div><div><span><b><font face="arial, helvetica,
