Hi guys,
First let me share that I have been doing databases for over 30 years almost exclusively SQL for the past 15 years, both back end programming and front end programming.
When I make modifications to certain elements I sometimes get warnings when I save about changing from one data type to another. I have to admit I don't understand them as they make little sense to me. This latest was about a column in a table that holds numeric values that can be in the range of 1 to 999. The datatype in the database is INT. Fabrik suggested using VARCHAR(255) !!! There have been some similar suggestions.
Is there a way to turn those warnings off?
Best regards,
Arnor
