如何通过 mysql 工作台更改列顺序？

Question

I know how to reorder column order through query, How do I reorder columns in MySQL Query Editor? ,

I just want to know is there any other (simpler) way to do this directly through MySQL workbench.

Answer 1

Right-click the column and choose Move Up or Move Down . Dragging does not work in MySQL Workbench 6.3.

P.Salmon commented with a link that has more detail.

Answer 2

• Open Alter Table
• Just move column with your mouse to the position you want (Do not select it before this action)

Answer 3

First of all you should get column definition by using show create Table then I think Modify should work

ALTER TABLE yourTableName MODIFY bar bartype AFTER baz;

Hope it will help

Answer 4

As the previous answers point out, we need open Alter Table first. On workbench 8.0, right click table, then click 'Alter table'

The SQL I got from moving a column is as follows with "CHANGE COLUMN" keywords.

ALTER TABLE `your_database`.`your_table` 
CHANGE COLUMN `column_a` `column_a` VARCHAR(16) NULL DEFAULT NULL COMMENT 'this is comment' AFTER `colum_b`;
