    It would help to see the table you want to modify, but in general, adding new fields is quite straightforward.

     

    Open the table in design view:

     

    Then, save and close the table.

    If this is a split database, you should relink the table in the Front End to be sure it sees the new field, although Access normally does that automatically anyway.
