chapter 4 of mysql tutorial (1 reply)

Hi, I was able to successfully complete chapter 4 of the tutorial.

I created a table, with:

movie_id INT PK NN AI
title VARCHAR(45) NN
release_date DATE

I created an EER diagram and saved the model. I went back to the HOME screen and clicked "Edit Table Data" and I was able all of the data.

The question I have is how do I go back and create additional columns?

I went back to the "MySQL Model", selected dvd_collection (the right schema) and then double clicked the "movies" table. I added a column name:

director VARCHAR(45) and saved by going to File->save model.

Then I went back to the home screen and clicked "Edit Table Data" again. In the MySQL Editor the new column does not show up at all.

In the Object Browser, when I click dvd_collection->tables>movies>columns the original three columns appear but the new one does not.

Somehow it isn't updating? Am I just saving the new table wrong?

Thank you very much for an awesome tutorial/forum, any help is sincerely appreciated.
