    Default Question about SQL for putting descriptions on Zen Cart Invoices

    Hi All;
    Dr. Byte posted a set of instructions quite awhile ago for putting descriptions on Zen Cart Invoices. I figured out all of the required changes but I'm not sure about one thing. He says:

    And add an additional field in your orders_products table:
    Code:
    alter table orders_products add column products_description text NOT NULL;


    Do I run this piece of code in the Install Sql Patches box or am I supposed to do something else with it?
    Thanks!

    You can run that in the Install SQL Patches ... and it would add the new field so that you can store the information during the order process ...

    Sorry I've been away so long. I get an error when I try to run that piece of code from the Install SQL Patches application. Am I missing something?
    Thanks.

    It think it goes without saying, but shouldn't you post the exact error you get so people can know what's going on and can help you?
    I no longer provide installation support on forum for all my modules. However, if there are real bugs with the modules please feel free to contact me
