How to change MySQL column definition?

This should do it:

ALTER TABLE test MODIFY locationExpert VARCHAR(120)

Do you mean altering the table after it has been created? If so you need to use alter table, in particular:

ALTER TABLE tablename MODIFY COLUMN new-column-definition

e.g.

ALTER TABLE test MODIFY COLUMN locationExpect VARCHAR(120);
