Hi Chris,
Select the integer fields, Cut, Save, then
Paste. Now you can change the field type before
you save again and they will retain the same id and permissions.
This will work for changing the field types
without breaking the workflow. This technique
works great if you change your mind while you are
still in development. However, you will lose all
data in those fields. I do not know what happens
if you change the data type in your development
environment and then import it into
production. You will probably want to try it using a test form first.

Hello list
We have an application which does some budget calculations on projects
and flags them as on track/off track and so forth. Most of the
calculations are based in integer fields. Now the business would like
to allow decimal inputs.
Is there a shortcut to changing integer fields to decimal fields
without tearing the whole thing apart and breaking all the workflow?
Thanks and Happy Friday!
