There are
several ways to add Fields to a Table. The previous page used Click
to Add. The next Field will be added with the Table Tools.
Go to
Table Tools->Fields.
Go to

Thoughts to Consider: Should the
Field names include spaces? It
is usually better to skip the spaces in a Field name. When
Microsoft Access finds a Field name with spaces, the database will
alter the name with an underscore like this: Last_Name.
