Creating a header in an existing database

[christian]

I have an existing data base I woud like to create a additional header for a
certain column of data

 

[Golfinray]

Go to design view on the table and place your cursor where you want to add a
column. Then hit insert/column. If you only want to change or add to the name
of the existing column, in design view simply name the column what you want
it to be.

So.... I have an existing column of data and I want to create a header for
that information how is that done

 

[Golfinray]

Go into design view and change it or click at the top of the column. It will
turn black, then when you click again just the column name will turn black
and you can change it there. You are not talking about creating a header on a
form or report are you because that is different?

If you're using a Table for printing or displaying data... don't. Reports are
the preferred tool for printing, and Forms for displaying onscreen. You can
easily create labels as "headers" if you use these tools.

If you have a good reason to look at a table datasheet, you can set a field's
Caption property to a text string which will be displayed as the header.
