I am new to mysql/myphoadmin but have created a table in a database and inser=
ted data via PHP
This worked OK but one of the fields is truncated. It is one I set at decimal=
 instead of decimal(3.2) ie type 4.25;
How can I use myphadmin to to alter just this item - it doesnt matter if this=
 disturbs the data since I have emptied the table BUT I dont know how to get =
to the correct dialog to alter the datatype. Is there a troubleshhooting or m=
aintenance manual somewhere which might contain this info. I realise this is =
pretty basic but I cant find the solution.
Help very much appreciated.
Heki
