Is there a way to change the attribute type without actually deleting the attribute and then create the same attribute with a different type?

Thanks

Nope.

I'd create a new attribute "MyAttrNew" with the correct type, but does not generate history. Copy the values from "MyAttr" to "MyAttrNew" for each object. Delete "MyAttr". Rename "MyAttrNew" to "MyAttr". Turn on History for "MyAttr".

Practice your DXL on a copy of the module. Not that I ever need to do that...
