Default Make a change in Access DB backend

My database has been split. I used JStreet Access Relinker to set up the
linkage.

I now want to add a URl (hyperlink) field to the Back End Contacts table so
that I can draw that field into the query for a form (both in the front end).
It is my database. Is there a way to do this? Do I have to import the
queries/forms/reports/macros back into the backend and then resplit the
database?

Thanks for whatever insight you can provide.

Mary

No, you don't need to do any importing.

Make the change in the back-end.

Go into the front-end and delete the linked table then relink it.
