[Qgis-user] is it possible to change field type

[Michael.Dodd]

When creating polygons I suddenly realised that I need to change the field type from integer to text, however this does not seem possible in layer properties and the help does not mention this.  Is there some other way of changing the type or is it fixed once you have started entering data?
