If I set up a table and load data into it from Excel, and then I decide to
add a field, can I erase the data and reload with the new field - or is that
going to cause a lot of problems? Similarly, if I want to reload all the
data from scratch, can I erase what's there and start with just my table
definitions? Thanks.
 
Don't learn Access, learn SQL Server-- unless you want to get stuck
making $12/hour like Tony Toews.

And that's $12/canadian!

Yes you can erase the data and reload it using the newly added field as long
as the data in the newly added field complies with the datatype you've chosen
for the new field. So you can start from scratch.
