The SQL syntax for ALTER TABLE Add Index is
ALTER TABLE "table_name"
ADD INDEX " INDEX_NAME " (COLUMN_NAME)
Let's look at the example. Assuming our starting point is the "customer" table created in the CREATE TABLEsection:
Table customer
Column Name | Data Type |
First_Name | char(50) |
Last_Name | char(50) |
Address | char(50) |
City | char(50) |
Country | char(25) |
Birth_Date | date |
Assume we want to add an index on the "Country" column. To do this, we type in the following:
ALTER table customer ADD INDEX IDX_COUNTRY (Country);
Please note that using ALTER TABLE to add an index is not supported in Oracle or SQL Server.
