[SQLObject] Altering a (populated) database column

[Hugo M. <hu...@ni...>]

   Is there any way that I can modify an existing database column,
with data in it, without losing the data in it? All I need to be able
to do is increase the size of a StringCol.

   I can see addColumn and delColumn methods of the sqlmeta object,
but not an alterColumn or anything similar.

   Thanks,
   Hugo.
