Wonder if anyone can help me with what ought to be a simple problem. I'm
playing with the Access template for a recipe database at
http://office.microsoft.com/en-gb/templates/TC010765231033.aspx and want to
change the ingredient quantity field so I can enter alphanumerics. Right now
it only accepts numbers. I assume I need to change the data type so I've
looked at the help file and it says to open the table in design view, click
the Data Type column, and select the new data type. I'm not necessarily sure
I need to change it, but I can't find the Data Type column in the Design
view anyway. TIA for any suggestions to fix this.
