Talking Change Tables Field Size ie. varchar(50) to varchar(100) - SQL Server 2000

I'm pretty deep into a web application I'm building for my current employer. It's about 90% done, 3 weeks of work. Because of this I do not want to change the setup of the project.

I would ideally like to be able to change the size of fields in a table. Such as, varchar(50) to varchar(100). I'm just wondering if the resizing is possible.

Another problem I am having is renaming a table. I've seen the syntax for it but everytime I try it doesn't work.

My code:

if not form_in_new_name = "" then
sSQL = "RENAME " & form_in_name & "_table TO " & form_in_new_name & "_table ;"
Set rs2 = cn.Execute(sSQL)
Set rs2 = Nothing

Thanks for the help in advance!

1) Can't you just change the size in Enterprise Manager?
2) You need to use the alter table command, like this
Code:
If(Len(form_in_new_name) <> 0) then 
   sSQL = "ALTER TABLE '" & form_in_name & "'_table  RENAME TO '" & form_in_new_name & "'_table"
   Set rs2 = cn.Execute(sSQL)
   Set rs2 = Nothing
End If


BTW, In the future please post you questions in the proper forum. The Code Bank is for sample code only, not for questions.
