Hai,
If u want to add a new field to a table means first create a new table with all the old Fields and new field. Insert all the records from the old table to this new table. drop the old table. rename the new table as old table.
Then change the prog according to the new field then create new dclgen and again go for compile and bind.
I think if u are not using this new field in ur program means there is no prg changes.
