Adding new fields to database #11

At the moment we have to drop the table and remake it to create new columns. Can we see if rails' schemas or active record will shortcut this for us or make an automated SQL script? I'm pretty sure Josh wants to be able to add new columns and add it to a search group.

did it via raw SQL execution for adding to the data table and used rails update method for updating the search groups
