Udpate tables usinh Heidisql

Hello,

I have a database with a lot of tables. During the development process I needed to add columns into my test database. How can I update my production database with all those changes without losing my data in production? I'm using Heidisql to manage my databases.

Thanks in advance

Greetings

Adding a column, for example:

ALTER TABLE t ADD COLUMN c INT;

will not have an impact on existing data in the table, so you shouldn't have to worry about losing data in this case.
