Hi,
If there is a suitable cast in the database, then the combo box will be
populated with usable column types and made selectable (try it with
varchar which should be castable). Any other conversion requires the use
of the USING clause to the alter table statement which pgAdmin doesn't
support.

Hi,
now that PostgreSQL 8 supports changing the datatype of a column with
the 'ALTER TABLE ... ALTER COLUMN ... TYPE new_type [USING ...]' syntax
