How to alter the datatype of a column in a table?

回答1:

CREATE TABLE dbo.MyTable (column_a INT );
GO
INSERT INTO dbo.MyTable  (column_a) VALUES (10);
GO
ALTER TABLE dbo.MyTable  ALTER COLUMN column_a DECIMAL (5, 2);
GO
DROP TABLE dbo.MyTable;
GO

回答2:

alter table yourtable alter column yourcolumnname yourdatatype;

This only works if SQL can cast the old values to the new values with the new datatype. If this fails, you will have to create a new column, migrate the data some way, and drop the old column.
