Hi,

Anybody knows how to add column with reference to BEFORE or AFTER any
given column? Let say here's my table structure:

  Column  |       Type        | Modifiers 
----------+-------------------+-----------
 surname  | character varying | 
 lastname | character varying | 
 address   | character varying |

And, I want to add the field name age with type integer after lastname
OR before the address field. How to I do that?

I would really appreciate your response.

Thanks in advance.
