I lean towards Gustav's second solution.  Since it looks like you've got data you want to drop into the new table you'd have to update the new field with data after running ALTER TABLE.  By creating the table once you can simply append your data (after clearing the existing data out first of course).

Hi Alan

You'll probably have to either:

  Leave out the Yes/No field from your create table query.
  Run an "ALTER TABLE ..." action query to append that field.

or

  Run a "CREATE TABLE ... " action query to create an empty table as
  to your needs.
  Change your create table query to an append query.
