Hey Jason,

yes, with these files you can add a table column.
But if you use the kickstarter to edit your extension you can select which 
files will be updated. So you can prevent the code to be changed in your 
other classes.

Greets, Tommy

Hello All,

I have made a minor mistake in building my plug-in and missed adding a table 
column in my MYSQL database. I have used Kickstarter to setup the extension. 
But not sure I can edit my extension now with the Kickstarter because I 
believe it would rewrite over all the code I have already written. Looking 
through the extension files. I believe I can manually add a new table column 
by editing the ext_tables.sql, ext_tables.php and the tca.php. Is this 
correct? Are there any other files I need to edit to add this column?  I 
basically forgot to add the "city" field in my table for the address. 
Whoops. Sorry, for the beginner question. I just want to make sure I don't 
miss anything.

Thanks in advance,

Jason R Alexander
