Hi to everyone! This is my first post here! :-)

I've been trying to move a field from a table imported from MS Access, but I have not found a way. I've tried it from the Data view and Design view.

You can see what I want in this screenshot (set the field number 30 ["Pregunta"] in the second place [just after "Tema"]):

How can I do?

Thank you very much!!

Dear user, you can always:
1. right click on the desired row and select "Insert Empty Row" command,
2. re-do the column's design there
3. remove row corresponding to the original column's design
4. save the design.

Please note, the table data will be deleted in Kexi 2.4 or earlier as the warning tell.

For workarounds please refer to viewtopic.php?f=221&t=100912 and http://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=221&t=101345 threads.

PS: please attach screenshots using this forum's interface because after time links to 3rd-party sites may disappear.

Thanks @jstaniek :)

The table had lots of data, so I could not follow these 4 steps.

After reading viewtopic.php?f=221&t=100912 and viewtopic.php?f=221&t=101345 threads, I did exporting to a CSV file, importing the CSV into a spreadsheet, changing column there, exporting to a CSV file and importing into Kexi.

I hope Kexi 2.5 include a graphic and intuitive method.

Thank you very much anyway!

PS: Sorry, I haven't found how to attach screenshots using the forum's interface...
