Hi!

That looks sane, though you didn't need the WITH.

I changed select to code below.
If same table name appears in multiple schemas, it generates duplicate alter column clauses which cause error.
How to fix it to generate proper sql ?

I added n.nspname='myschame' as shown in code below but problem persists.

Andrus.

SELECT 'ALTER TABLE ' || quote_ident(n.nspname) || '.'
           || quote_ident(c.relname) || ' ' ||
 string_agg(
' ALTER COLUMN ' || quote_ident(a.attname) || ' TYPE varchar(' || i.character_maximum_length ||')',
     ',' ) || ';' as statement
 FROM pg_class c
   JOIN pg_namespace n ON n.oid = c.relnamespace
   JOIN pg_attribute a ON a.attrelid = c.oid
   JOIN pg_type t ON t.oid = a.atttypid
JOIN information_schema.columns i ON (i.table_name = c.relname AND i.column_name = a.attname)
WHERE t.typname = 'bpchar'
  AND c.relkind = 'r'
  AND n.nspname <> 'pg_catalog' and not attisdropped
and n.nspname='myschema'
group by n.nspname, c.relname
