Do you mean the target SDK?

Go to your project's properties (Alt + Enter), click android and select the SDK you want to use (preferably the latest one)

You can also specify the minimum SDK in your android manifest. For example, if you set 11 to minimum SDK, phones with API < 11 will not be able to use your application.

Yes, you can upgrade it from Project Properties.

Right click on your project-> Go to Properties-> Select Android Version whatever you want-> Click ok.

You can also do it in Android Manifest.xml file. You can give min and max SDK version in it like below:

<uses-sdk
android:minSdkVersion="8" //Min here is 8 means android 2.2
android:targetSdkVersion="17" />
