1. Go to Manage > Form Designer.
2. Go to the page with the field you would like to convert.
3. At the top click on the Show all Controls button. On the left, a grid will display the fields for the page.
4. Sort the controls by name and find your field or locate it by the Tab Index. Scroll to the right to make sure you are on the field and not the label.
5. Right-click on your field and select Convert this field to... and then the type of field you want to change your field to.
6. Close the Form Designer and Restart PensionPal.
