Good Morning,

I’ve been asked to make changes to a custom CMS, involving the addition and deletion of form fields and corresponding database fields. The UI changes are pretty basic. However, the twist is that I don’t have direct access to the MySQL database. I’ve only been given a .sql file. I’ve edited it, changing the table structures to accomodate the UI modifications. Besides the table edits in the .sql file, is there anything else I should do to it to ensure that it re-creates the database correctly?

Thanks,
Sid

    Can you request a copy of the database, or the database with dummy data, or even a script that creates the database? That way, you can take this home, and then double check your SQL file does the right thing.
