Solution 2

You can't actually do that - you would have to build a temporary table, transfer the information over, and then rebuild the old table from the temporary.

Having said that, column order should not matter anyway - unless you are using "SELECT * FROM ..." and relying on column number in the returned data, which is a very, very silly thing to do in the first place!

What are you trying to achieve that you think this is necessary, and a good idea?
