Subject: Alter column
Date: Sat, 27 Jul 2002 03:46:30 +0200
Message-ID: <3D41FB76.8080509@gmx.ch> (raw)

Hi,

I wonder if I can alter the type of a column to a "supertype" of the 
original column type? Afaik, this was impossible in 7.1.3. However, I 
use 7.2.1. If yes, what would be the correct syntax?

Cheers,

Thiemo
