I have seen this question a few times and still have not found a tool that
lets me edit the schema.
I have pgadminIII which I like, I also have tried a few other tools some are
not free, but none seem to allow me to just change the type of a field from
say char to varchar etc.
Is there a tool (even if its not free)?
Or do I have to do something like MSSQL does behind the scenes:
