CASTing A Datatype Returned By CASE Statement
Apr 28, 2004
I realize that the CASE statement doesn't like different datatypes as return values but if I want to format the "0" in the second WHEN condition below to "000", how do I do that? I have a "Region" that is "000" and would like it to show up that way at the very top of my report. I have the GROUP BY and ORDER BY to work fine, it just shows up as "0" and I can't change it. I realize it is being read as an int but am having trouble with the CAST and where to place it. Thanks again, you guys are great.

SELECT Region =
CASE WHEN branch_num IN(48,53,78,173,186,198,208,212,257,286,287,317,35 3,398,440,
478,571,572,610,1069) THEN 44
WHEN branch_num IN(484,532,841,864,7001,7101,7102,7103,7104,9031) THEN 0
ELSE 999
END

Biz talk server executes every query twice, first with FMT only to get metadata.If metadata changed, it will produce error.Now, i have query like:
SELECT col1, col2, col3 INTO #tmp FROM dbo.myTable
How SQL decide the type of column in #tmp? Does it create column of the same type as it is in dbo.myTable or its decision is based on result?For example, col1 is varchar(20), but col1 in #tmp will be varchar(200) or even nVarChar.Col2 is INT, but result is for example low number(like, 1,2,3,) - is it possible that col2 in #temp table will be smallint or tinyint even if col2 in myTable is INT.If that is true one way to overcome that will be to explicitly CAST all columns to proper data type. Is there any performance impact of casting: CAST(col1 as VARCHAR(20)) if col1 is already varchar(20) in dbo.myTable?

Here is my expression in a derived component:
"Failed insert into PONL_WELL. WELL_NO=" + (DT_WSTR,10)PROP_NO
PROP_NO comes from ms sql server , and the derived component datatype for this column is DT_WSTR.
The destination will be ms sql server, and i have a data conversion after the derived component to cast from DT_WSTR to DT_STR.
However, the derived component failed everytime giving me
Error: 0xC0049064 at Load Ponl_Well, Derived Column [1342]: An error occurred while attempting to perform a type cast.
Anyone know how i can eliminate the data conversion component and just do my string and column concatenation in the derived column and have it output as DT_STR?

A SQL Server 2005 db has three date related-columns (MonthGiven,
DayGiven, YearGiven) each as smallint datatype. I would like to
create a DocDate column (datetime datatype) that combines the data from
the three existing date-related columns. I have tried casting and
simple concatentation without success. ALTER TABLE Details ADD DocDate DateTime NULL
UPDATE Details SET DocDate = CAST(MonthGiven AS DateTime)+ '/' + CAST(DayGiven AS DateTime) + "/" Cast(YearGiven As DateTime)
I think I need to be doing a Conversion instead of casting but
have been unable to implement info I have found in the SQL Server
Developer Center in my situation.

I am selecting older legacy data from an AS400 mainframe that we still use. I am fairly new to constructing T-SQL statements so I hope I am doing this correctly. There is a table from the AS400 that has been setup with a field for TMONTH, TDAY, and TYEAR. Instead of having one field for a date, for some reason years ago this was set up this way.
I now have this statement in my SELECT statement and it is not working:
WHERE (CAST(OWNR.TMONTH + '/' + OWNR.TDAY + '/' + OWNR.TYEAR AS DATETIME) >= @startdate)
I am not getting a syntax error, however I am getting "Error Converting data type varchar to numeric. These fields on the AS400 are set up as numeric fields.
What do I need to do differently? Should I use a CONVERT instead and if so, how would I structure that statement.
Thanks for the help

I am working on a company sign out sheet for our Intranet. The application accesses a sql database. I tried using a datareader as well as a dataset to access a small piece of information regarding the group that each employee belongs to in the company. My last attempt was to assign the value to the text property of a text box and evaluate the text from the text box with the Select Case but that did not work either.The application is supposed to generate an email to our receptionist as well as to the group technical assistant responsible for each group according to the value that is passed into the Select Case statement. With the datareader as well as the dataset and even now with creating a text box and accessing the text property, I was able to assign the group value to a variable (I can see the value in the subject of the email), but when the variable is supposed to be evaluated by the select case statement it skips right through all of the cases to case else and uses only the receptionist's address in the email as if it doesn't even see the value of the variable. I have searched for a possible answer to the problem I am but so far have had no luck. Any ideas? I included the part of the code that I am having trouble with: '********************************************************************************************' New DataSet is created to determine the group the employee belongs to so that the appropriate' group technical assistant is emailed when employee signs out'******************************************************************************************** ' declare variablesDim sqlGroup As String ' string variable to store sql statement for datasetDim BLGroup As String ' string variable to store the bl group of the employeeDim emailAddress As String ' string variable to store resulting email address Dim groupDS As DataSet ' dataset variableDim groupAdapter As SqlDataAdapter ' sql data adapter variable' sql statement to access group value from the databasesqlGroup = "SELECT BLGroup FROM BLGroupsView WHERE (RTRIM(fname) + ' ' + LTRIM(lname)='" & employee & "')" ' repopen the connection (leftover from working with the datareader)Connection.Open()' create new SqlDataAdapter applying sql statement and connectiongroupAdapter = New SqlDataAdapter(sqlGroup, Connection)' create new dataset groupDS = New DataSet()' populate the datasetgroupAdapter.Fill(groupDS, "BLGroupsView") ' get the value stored in the BLGroup column (only one row is returned at a time) BLGroup = groupDS!BLGroup' Create GroupTextBox TextBox control.Dim GroupTextBox As New TextBox()' Set options for the UserTextBox TextBox control.GroupTextBox.ID = "GroupTextBox"GroupTextBox.Visible = "False"GroupTextBox.Text = BLGroup' just trying anything with this next line, even when i didn't set this the select case statement did not seem to see the value returned by the variableGroupTextBox.runat = "server" ' use a select case statement to evaluate the value of the group (didn't work when I passed in the BLGroup variable eitherSelect Case GroupTextBox.TextCase "bh"emailAddress = "receptionist@myaddress.com; bhassistant@myaddress.com"Case "env"emailAddress = "receptionist@myaddress.com; envassistant@myaddress.com"Case "sw"emailAddress = "receptionist@myaddress.com; swassistant@myaddress.com"Case "fac"emailAddress = "receptionist@myaddress.com; facassistant@myaddress.com"Case "www"emailAddress = "receptionist@myaddress.com; wwwassistant@myaddress.com"Case ElseemailAddress = "receptionist@myaddress.com"End Select '*************************************************************************************************' set new message objectDim myMessage As System.Web.Mail.MailMessage = New System.Web.Mail.MailMessage()'**********************************************************' set message properties'********************************************************** myMessage.From = "me@myaddress.com"myMessage.To = emailAddressmyMessage.Subject = employee & " Signing Out at " & TimeOut.Text & " " & BLGroupmyMessage.Body = employee & " Signing Out at " & TimeOut.Text & " for " & Destination.Text & " will potentially return at " & EstTimeIn.Text'***********************************************************' set smtp server namesmtpMail.SmtpServer = "mailserver1"' send email using smtpsmtpMail.Send(myMessage) It sends the message and returns the BLGroup value everytime but only sends to the receptionist.

I have a view where I'm using a series of conditions within a CASE statement to determine a numeric shipment status for a given row. In addition, I need to bring back the corresponding status text for that shipment status code.
Previously, I had been duplicating the CASE logic for both columns, like so:
Code Block...beginning of SQL view...
shipment_status =
CASE
[logic for condition 1]
THEN 1
WHEN [logic for condition 2]
THEN 2
WHEN [logic for condition 3]
THEN 3
WHEN [logic for condition 4]
THEN 4
ELSE 0
END,
shipment_status_text =
CASE
[logic for condition 1]
THEN 'Condition 1 text'
WHEN [logic for condition 2]
THEN 'Condition 2 text'
WHEN [logic for condition 3]
THEN 'Condition 3 text'
WHEN [logic for condition 4]
THEN 'Condition 4 text'
ELSE 'Error'
END,
...remainder of SQL view...
This works, but the logic for each of the case conditions is rather long. I'd like to move away from this for easier code management, plus I imagine that this isn't the best performance-wise.
This is what I'd like to do:
Code Block
...beginning of SQL view...
shipment_status =
CASE
[logic for condition 1]
THEN 1
WHEN [logic for condition 2]
THEN 2
WHEN [logic for condition 3]
THEN 3
WHEN [logic for condition 4]
THEN 4
ELSE 0
END,
shipment_status_text =
CASE shipment_status
WHEN 1 THEN 'Condition 1 text'
WHEN 2 THEN 'Condition 2 text'
WHEN 3 THEN 'Condition 3 text'
WHEN 4 THEN 'Condition 4 text'
ELSE 'Error'
END,
...remainder of SQL view...
This runs as a query, however all of the rows now should "Error" as the value for shipment_status_text.
Is what I'm trying to do even currently possible in T-SQL? If not, do you have any other suggestions for how I can accomplish the same result?
Thanks,
Jason

Hi All,
I've looked through the forum hoping I'm not the only one with this issue but alas, I have found nothing so I'm hoping someone out there will give me some assistance.
My problem is the case statement in my Insert Statement. My overall goal is to insert records from one table to another. But I need to be able to assign a specific value to the incoming data and thought the case statement would be the best way of doing it. I must be doing something wrong but I can't seem to see it.
Here is my code:
Insert into myTblA
(TblA_ID,
mycasefield =
case
when mycasefield = 1 then 99861
when mycasefield = 2 then 99862
when mycasefield = 3 then 99863
when mycasefield = 4 then 99864
when mycasefield = 5 then 99865
when mycasefield = 6 then 99866
when mycasefield = 7 then 99867
when mycasefield = 8 then 99868
when mycasefield = 9 then 99855
when mycasefield = 10 then 99839
end,
alt_min,
alt_max,
longitude,
latitude
(
Select MTB.LocationID
MTB.model_ID
MTB.elevation, --alt min
null, --alt max
MTB.longitude, --longitude
MTB.latitude --latitude
from MyTblB MTB
);
The error I'm getting is:
Incorrect syntax near '='.
I have tried various versions of the case statement based on examples I have found but nothing works.
I would greatly appreciate any assistance with this one. I've been smacking my head against the wall for awhile trying to find a solution.

We have some SQL CLR code that was written to go get information from a web service...all works great and the CLR code does what it is supposed to. The problem is, it returns its success or failure status as a string text value (equivalent of a print statement I imagine) instead of as a result set or output parameter that i can check. In the proc I wrote to call the CLR stored proc I do some cleanup that i would like to rollback if the call to the web service that the CLR proc makes fails. Problem is, how can i get there. I have tried every way that I know and I can't seem to get that text into an object (temp table, variable whatever) that i can evaluate. Anyone have any suggestions?

Gurus.I do not know if it is possible, but here is what I want to do.I want to allow user to page the SQL result, so he could decides toreturn from row 10 to row 20, or row 100 to 200, without returns thewhole resultset. Every time he sends another request, I do not mind tohit the database again, (I do not want to cache the result in themiddle tier server, scalability issue), and I know that I could achievethis with CURSOR, but unfortunately the FOR XML is not allowed in aCURSOR statement .(I know that I could achieve what I want to do by writing custom codein the middle tier, but I just want to see if there is a way to do thison the database side.)Any comments & suggestion is greatly appreciated.Thanks in advance.(I am using SQL2005)John

Hi all,
is there no a way to determine if a SqlCeDataReader has managed to return data (rows) from an executed SQL SELECT statement? I ask this because I have the following problem where I first need to determine if data (rows) are returned, if so, cycle through them and get the data out. But if I do the test to determine if data is returned (like I have in my code below) then the Reader.Read() is classed as reading a row, so when I do my 'while (Reader.Read())' this will then only work with data in the 2nd row.
if (Reader.Read()){ while (Reader.Read()) { //Get data from rows }}
I recall having this issue before as there doesn't seem to be a standard way of testing for data returned from a SELECT statement. I hope you can shed some light on this for me.
Thanks

I have a query that returns results based on information in several tables. The problem I am having is that is there are no records in the one table it doesn't return any information at all. This table may not have any information initially for the employees so I need to show results whether or not there is anything in this one table.
Here is my select statement:
SELECT employee.emp_id, DATEDIFF(mm, employee.emp_begin_accrual, GETDATE()) * employee.emp_accrual_rate -
(SELECT SUM(request_duration) AS daystaken
FROM request) AS daysleft, employee.emp_lname + ', ' + employee.emp_fname + ' ' + employee.emp_minitial + '.' AS emp_name,
department.department_name, location.location_name
FROM employee INNER JOIN
request AS request_1 ON employee.emp_id = request_1.emp_id INNER JOIN
department ON employee.emp_department = department.department_id INNER JOIN
location ON department.department_location = location.location_id
GROUP BY employee.emp_id, employee.emp_begin_accrual, employee.emp_accrual_rate, employee.emp_fname, employee.emp_minitial,
employee.emp_lname, department.department_name, location.location_name
ORDER BY location.location_name, department.department_name, employee.emp_lname
The section below is the part that may or may not contain information:
SELECT (SELECT SUM(request_duration) AS daystaken
FROM request) AS daysleft
So I need it to return results whether this sub query has results or not. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Hi all,
I was wondering if there is any way in an sql statement to check whether the data your trying to get out of the DB is of a particular type, ie. Int, char etc. I was thinking about a case statement such as
<code>
CASE WHEN (MyNum <> INT) then 0 end AS MyNum
</code>
This has to be included in the sql statement cause I need this field to get other data.
Any thoughts on how to achieve this would be greatly appreciated.
If I’m in the wrong thread section please advise of best one to get help in.

I could like to use a Case statement to determine if there is Null. If so, then output N/A in place of the Null. So then my possible valus are Yes, No, and N/A.
Any clues?

I am trying to get avg score by site, by call type. Columns are Site(varchar), Calltype(varchar), totalscore(float). Calltypes are A, B, C, D. Sites are 1, 2, 3, 4. I can do a straight average statement and only get one calltype.
I want to do a CASE statement to get all average scores for all calltypes.
Select Site, avg(totalscore) as [Avg Score]
FROM DB
WHERE calltype = 'A'
GROUP BY Site
Results
Site Avg Score (for A)
1 85
2 75.5
3 85.33
SELECT Site, AVG(CASE WHEN TotalScore > 0 AND CallType = 'A' THEN Totalscore
ELSE 0 END) AS [Avg Score For A]
FROM DB
GROUP BY Site
Results
Site Avg Score For A
1 i get 8.5
2 i get 37.75

when i m executing it:
select * from fntotalcountcustclas('copd','1/1/2008','4/11/2008')
order by totalcount desc
i m getting results like:
itemnmbr,custclas,custclasdescription,totalcount
------------------------------------------------
06-5841 STANDARD Standard(web) 31
06-5840 STANDARD Standard(web) 30
kr-014 STANDARD Standard(web) 72
06-5841 INDPATIENT Patient 12
06-5840 INDPATIENT Patient 9
06-5845 INDPATIENT Patient 6
06-5841 PROGRAM Program 6
06-5841 INST-HOSPITAL Hospital 11
...................
Basically, i ahve to use one condition to get corrrect output related to inputs:
like - i have to input @category varchar(50), @category_value varchar(50)
and if category = 'campaign' then category_value = ''
then output should be itemnmbr sum(totalcount) [whatever should be custclas or custclasdesscription]
itemnmbr sumcount
-----------------
06-5840 52
06-541 101
06-452 26
kr-045 252
and if categroy = 'item' then category_value = any itemnmbrs(06-5840,06-5845,06-5841 etc..)
then output should be
itemnmbr custclas custclasdescription totalcount
-----------------------------------------------------
06-5840 STANDARD Standard(web) 31
06-5840 INDPATIENT Patient 9
06-5840 PROGRAM Program 6
06-5840 INS-HOSPITAL Hospital 17
like that..
can anyone help me to write case statement.
thanks a lot!!
create function fntotalcountcustclas
( @campaign varchar(50), @startdate datetime, @enddate datetime,
@category varchar(50), @category_value varchar(50))
RETURNS TABLE
AS
RETURN
( Select t.itemnmbr,t.custclas, t.custclasdescription, t.totalcustclas as totalcount,
case when category
from
(
select
vi.itemnmbr, replace(vc.custclas,'','Unspecified') as custclas, vc.custclasdescription, count(vc.custclas) as totalcustclas
from vwcustnmbr vc
join vwitemnbmr vi
on vi.sopnumbe=vc.sopnumbe
Where vi.Campaign = @Campaign and (vc.docdate between @startdate and @enddate)
group by vi.itemnmbr,vc.custclas, vc.custclasdescription
) as t
)

Im running the following sql statement but I dont see the
expected output. There are few differences between acc & cl1, mcc & cl2 , ncr & cl3 but I dont see either 'ONE' or 'TWO' or 'THREE'.
There is even a case where cl3 is null but the sql is not filling in either one or two or three. Query simply returns id & rest as null values.
SELECT P1.id,
CASE
WHEN p1.acc!= p1.cl1 then 'ONE'
WHEN p1.mcc!= p1.cl2 then 'TWO'
when p1.ncr!= p1.cl3 then 'THREE'
Else NULL END
As NOnMatchingColumn
from
(select id, acc, cl1,mcc,cl2,ncr,cl3 from dbo.ml)P1

I'm not sure if I am doing this the right way. In my table I have project ids. Each project id has several activities associated with it. Each project has a starting balance. Each activity posts an expense to the total balance of the project. If the project has enough money to handle the charges made by the activities, all the activity expenses can be "posted". If there isn't enough money, I want to loop through the activities, check to see if there is enough of a balance to "post" the first one, If there is, then I want to re-adjust the balance and check the second activity. I want to scroll through each project/activity to see what can be "posted". Here is what I have so far, but I cannot work out how to change the total balance amount. Hopefully what I am trying to do makes sense!
declare @testId nchar(6)
declare @RowNum int
declare @newBalance int
select top 1 @testId=projID from #ProjIds
set @RowNum = 0
WHILE @RowNum <= (Select Max(temp_id) from #ProjIds)
BEGIN
set @RowNum = @RowNum + 1
set @newBalance = (select top 1 Bal_2300
from #RevRecData
where @testId=projId
order by projID, activity)
select projId, activity, postCr, Bal_2300,
'New_Status' = Case when (postCr <= Bal_2300) then 'Can Clear' else 'Still Check' END,
'New_Balance' = Case when (postCr <= @newBalance) then (@newBalance - postCr) else @newBalance End
from #RevRecData
where @testId=projId
order by projID, activity
select top 1 @testId=projId from #ProjIds
where projId > @testID
END
