Suppose you need to add fields to a table after you create it. For example, if you want to use the Products table to track inventory levels, you can add the following four fields: UnitsInStock, ReorderLevel, UnitsOnOrder, and Discontinued. To add a field to a table, click Design View (View menu).

Insert Rows button

Insert a field in a specific location within the table   Suppose you want to insert a row for a new field between two existing fields, rather than at the end of the table. When you click an existing field and then click the Insert Rows button, Microsoft Access inserts a blank row immediately above that field.
