    Default Is there a way to change the field type of an existing field?

    Is it possible to change the field type of an existing field? In other words can I change an existing "drop Down" field to a "Calendar Date".

    There are several example of stuff like that here http://www.sugarcrm.com/wiki/index.p...Customizations.

    if you want to change and int to float that is in the vardefs file for that module and in the DB table structure of course.
