On the following code example in VFP7...

SQLEXEC(h,'select * from ARTICLE',"XXX")
ALTER TABLE XXX ADD &cPicGname g(4)

I get "Function is not supported on remote tables (Error 1525)"

What's the easiest way to add the column to the table?
Note that I have an additional consideration in that I may need
to add one to ten columns and the cursor could sometimes be very large
so a select is not the best.

I was hoping for something like:
USE DBF("XXX") AGAIN IN 0 ALIAS yyy
ALTER TABLE yyy ADD &cPicGname g(4)
