I have a deployed desktop application which uses an Access Database. I have a need to update the databases which are in the field by adding a few extra fields to some tables to support new functionality. Thedatabases is password protected.
The process I am following is to ship a new empty database which contains the new fields (these fields are set to not require entry, accept nulls and they are not indexed) and then add functionality to the application which selects the data from each table in the current deployed DB and inserts it into the same table new template database. Then I kill the original db, rename the new template to be the file used by the application.
