First resource in the FAQ section, which you obviously did not check... http://www.gossamer-threads.com/...um3/HTML/001090.html

You can also import your links.db into a spreadsheet program (I use StarCalc in Star Office), and add fields very easily.

Search for upgrade.pl and you will find a script in one of the Threads in this forum that will automatically add an extra delimiter and default value into your existing database.

BTW: There is a Mod available in the Resource Center for DBMAN that does this.

Also, you can use EditPlus to edit your existing database.
