Hi all,
I need help to change an existing column in my table from text to 'digit' type.
However, I can't find any numeric or integer property type.
The digit type should contains numbers only but it is not for calculation. It is a zipcode that has 6 digit numbers.
Please let me know how do I alter the text type to digit type. If alteration is not possible, how do I add in the property into PGAdmin4 which is running on windows 10.
Thank you.
