How do I access the Table Tools for fields? (1 Viewer)

[GOVMATE]

Hello, I'll admit that I haven't used Access in quite a while. I am trying to insert a field into a existing table from the main menu. Once I have highlighted the column that has the data attributes of the new column that I'd to add (Yes/No button options), I am unable to locate the "Table Tools-Fields" menu option, that would allow me to insert the new column with Yes/No button options. In the past I was able to located and use the Table Tools fields to insert a column with Yes/No button options. I can't locate the option on the Ribbon and I think there is a way to toggle the option that I'm looking for.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

In table design, select the field, set the datatype to yes/no and in field properties, select the lookup tab.

Not sure what you mean by yes/no button options

Hi. I'm not sure I understand your question. If you're trying to use an option group with radio buttons, you would do that on a form, not in the table.
