SYMPTOMS

The table designer in Enterprise Manager does not provide a blank row to append a column to an existing table when that table has more than 299 columns. However, the designer does allow insertion of columns prior to the last column of the table.

WORKAROUND

Use the ALTER TABLE statement to append new columns to the table.
