Hi all, I am trying to change data type in the Data Editor but when I do, all numbers in the column changes to NA and back in the Console I get the warning message "NAs introduced by coercion". What's wrong? The table consists of 95 columns and 470 rows.

All I can say is that simple examples do work for me. -- Brian D.
