Subj:   Change VARCHAR(16) to BIGINT
 
From:   Bakthavachalam, Roopalini

Hi Forum,

I need to change a VARCHAR(16) field in a table to BIGINT. However it has alpha-numeric characters. Is it possible to change the datatype to BIGINT?

Right now, I am getting 'Bad character in format or data' error.


Thanks

Roopalini
