No It dosent appear in any of the Edit pages !! thats the exact problem...

I am using MySQL database..

If i import the database form a standard TAB Delimited file through
Interchange,
It seems that interchange reads the file ok...
If i perform a search i can found info in the new fields,
and i can display this inof,
but it dosent appear in any of the Admin pages....

Whats the 'Straight-by the book' method of adding fields to the Product
database ??
