[Qgis-user] attribute table

[Julio Cesar Canales DElgadillo]

Hello everybody,

Do you know how can I change the type of a field in the attributes table of a shp? I'm trying to get the counts of the values of a field that is determined as string, thus in the query, qgis doesn't recognize the difference between 10 and 14 (because as string both have a 1). I thing that changing the field to type integer this problem can be solved, but I don't know how to do that.
If  you now how to do it and can share the tipp, it would be great for me.

Thanks in advance.
