Is there a way to modify the type of an existing column? All I actually want to do is extend the length of the type from a VARCHAR(6) to VARCHAR(100).
Column | Type | Modifiers ------------------------+-----------------------+------------------------ email | character varying(6) | not null gold_program=> ALTER TABLE student MODIFY email varchar(100); ERROR: parser: parse error at or near "modify" ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
