I want to print in an error message a money value but have to convert it to a varchar first. I do not have any clue how to do this. Could someone help me out?
SELECT @iError = @@error, @iRowCount = @@rowcount
IF(@iError <> 0 OR @iRowCount <> 1)
BEGIN
CONVERT(@dValue, @cValue)
set @cError = 'Error attempting to insert new record. Product : ' + @cProduct + ' Sub-account : ' + @cSubAccount + ' Cost : $' + @cValue
RAISERROR(@cError, 16, 1)
END
@cValue is a varchar(20)
@dValue is money
Any help?

We have the same database in three different environment. The statement below works just fine in two database environment, but I am getting the error in the third one. All the databases are Microsoft SQL Server 2005. I could not pine point the source of the issue. Please any input that you might be able to provide. Thanks
The issue in simplest from
DECLARE @UDF_Value nvarchar(255)
set @UDF_Value = 111
SELECT CONVERT(money, @UDF_Value)
Msg 235, Level 16, State 0, Line 1
Cannot convert a char value to money. The char value has incorrect syntax.
I've been trying to solve this problem or just find an alternative to do this. I have filled a temp table with certain values for all columns except those columns that rely on calculations that need certain cell values from other columns in the temp table. I have a while statement that runs through each cell for one calculation column and this is the code that updates the fields on the calc column:
Code Block
EXEC('UPDATE #tblTemp
SET #tblTemp.['+@CalcColumns+'] = (CAST(ISNULL((SELECT #tblTemp.['+@Column1+']
FROM #tblTemp
WHERE #tblTemp.PK = '''+@PubKey+'''), 0.00)as money) - CAST(ISNULL((SELECT #tblTemp.['+@Column2+']
FROM #tblTemp
WHERE #tblTemp.PK = '''+@PubKey+''') , 0.00)as money))
WHERE #tblTemp.PK = '''+@PubKey+'''')
The problem is that it will not let me convert the two values to money. The error is:
Msg 235, Level 16, State 0, Line 1
Cannot convert a char value to money. The char value has incorrect syntax.
This is necessary to calculate the difference between these two cells from the temp table. I would appreciate any help! Thanks!
Hi Guys
I need your help again, I am try to update several columns and the data type is 'money'.
Below is the code I have used:
UPDATE CAT_Products SET
UnitCost ='10.00',UnitCost2 = '10.00',UnitCost3 = '10.00',UnitCost4 = '10.00',UnitCost5 = '10.00',UnitCost6 = '10.00'
WHERE ProductCode = '0008'
But it will not update, instead I get this error:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>[Error] Script lines: 1-9 -------------------------- Disallowed implicit conversion from data type varchar to data type money, table 'dbo.CAT_Products', column 'UnitCost'. Use the CONVERT function to run this query.
More exceptions ... Disallowed implicit conversion from data type varchar to data type money, table '.dbo.CAT_Products', column 'UnitCost2'. Use the CONVERT function to run this query.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The error message indicates that I need to use the convert function. But the columns data type is set at 'money' not 'varcher' . So do I need to convert data type to 'varcher' in order to update and convert back to data type 'money' when update complete? Or do I need to indicate in the update statement that data type is already 'money'? I am not sure how I would either.
Thanks
Hi,
I'm using the data type "money" in my SQL database and want to convert what's in txtPrice_textBox to the "money" format. I'm currently using the following code:
' objectCym.price = Convert.ToInt16(txtPrice_textBox.Text) '
Will this work? Is there any reason I should stay away from the "Money" data type?
Thanks,
David
I write using the SQL ODBC driver from software into a SLQ table called UPSSHIPMENT the format is as followed:
JobNumber varchar 50
Weight real 4
FreightCost varchar 8
TrackingNumber varchar 50

VOIDID varchar 3
I then have a trigger set to update the PACKAGE table as followed
CREATE TRIGGER [UPS] ON dbo.UPSSHIPMENT
FOR INSERT
AS

SET WEIGHT = inserted.WEIGHT,
FREIGHTCOST = inserted.FREIGHTCOST,
TRACKINGNUMBER = inserted.TRACKINGNUMBER,

UPDATE PACKAGE
SET WEIGHT = '',
FREIGHTCOST = '0.00',
TRACKINGNUMBER = '',
COMMENTS = 'UPS VOID'
FROM PACKAGE
INNER JOIN inserted on PACKAGE.JOBNUMBER = inserted.JOBNUMBER
WHERE inserted.VOIDID = 'Y'
END
The format of the PACKAGE table is as followed
Jobnumber varchar 50
FreightCost money 8
TrackingNumber varchar 50
Comments varchar 2000
Weight real 4
I am getting the following error
---------------------------

How do you use the convert function to change the data before the update? Thank You!

I need to always have a formatting of 999,999,999.00 in a column called PropertyMap9.
PropertyMap9 is always a nvarchar(max)
How do I SET a value using a CONVERT or CAST to accomplish this ?
Why does this give me a syntax error ? The PropertyMap7 set actually works and performs the calculation and sets the new value for that row, however the next line gives an error. I need all 3 columns PropertyMap9, 8, and 7 to always have the above formatting, while still maintaining the nvarchar(max) datatype in the column. HELP!
update PropertyMapValues
set PropertyMap7 = CONVERT(NVARCHAR(MAX),CAST(PropertyMap8 AS money) - (CAST(PropertyMap9 AS money)),1)
set PropertyMap9 = CONVERT(NVARCHAR(MAX),CAST(PropertyMap9 AS money))
END
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Procedure UpdatePropertyMap7, Line 59

There is insufficient result space to convert a money value to smallmoney.
It's a huge db with millions of records and we created asp files for it, and now my asp file will only works with smallmoney and not money data type.
As with money data type i am getting error Microsoft VBScript runtime (0x800A000D)

So i want to convert this field of MS SQL server db from "Money" to "SmallMoney" .
But bec db has over million records and i am getting this error.
There is insufficient result space to convert a money value to smallmoney
any way around it in SQL or in asp, i guess it's SQL problem so you guys must be expert on this. Help appreciated.

I have a special need in a view for a money column to look like money and still be a money datatype. So I need it to look like $100.00 (prefered) or 100.00(can make work).
If I convert like this '$' + CONVERT (NVARCHAR(12), dbo.tblpayments.Amount, 1) it is now a nvarchar and will not work for me.
How can I cast so it is still money? by default the entries look like 100.0000.
They must remain a money datatype.
Is it
possible in SQL 2005 to determine to which language symbol nchar(1) is
referred?
If
languages differ greatly, say, like Russian and English, can one write a function,
which, under the given alphabet, can determine to what language the symbol
belongs?
If the
languages have a similar alphabet, one is faced with the difficulties. For
example, it is needed to distinguish characters of American English from those
of Australian English or of English from those of any other European language
that uses almost the same alphabet. I don€™t know how to solve this problem.
What can you advise?
The final task
is to scan in Internet a great number of Web pages in various languages and to
make up a large dictionary, where each word will be entered in its language
group. It is in principle too important to select words in different languages
that use the same alphabet. Initial data for word selection will enter the
server in NTEXT format.
Yuri,
What is the difference between the above data types in SQL? Which datatype should I use if I wanted both numbers and characters?

I am trying to convert a single code page MS Server database into a unicode database, using the unicode data types,NCHAR, NVARCHAR, NTEXT. The problem is that in the original database, indexes and constraints have been defined on the tables whose configurations need to be changed. As a result, the ALTER TABLE command fails. Are there any other alternative solutions?
Also, data from the old database needs to be preserved. The objective is to create a unicode database which keeps the old data intact as well as accepts the new data in unicode.
It would be great if you could help!
Thanks,
Sheetal.
Hi,
I selected the columns which i need in the data source itself and i need 3 columns,one will direclty go to the destination without any change/transformation and about the other two i need to do few lookups.
When i try to do lookup for One column which has the datatype in the source as nchar(3) though the date in the column is a number(like 150,160,170 and so on), my lookup table(a dimension in DW) where i want to get the actual key by looking up with this number doesnt allow me to map to the dimension in the DW, as the Dimension has this column datatype as decimal (3,0)....i tried the datatype conversion to convert the nchar to decimal but it doesnt transform i dont know why...probably i am doing some mistake...Could someone suggest how to deal with this and which transformation to use..?
I'd really appreciate if someone on this forum suggest how to deal with this..?
thanks

Nothing much that i can do..!!
Hi ,
I have a column in my extract table as nchar(3) and in the destination (the same column with diff name ) it is decimal(3,0) .....i tried to use dataconversion transformation.....i even tried to use cast/convert fn's in the SQL Command (which i use in the "Source Transformation" to get the columns from the extract table).
I tried all the ways i can and still i get the same error..:

Hello
in MS SQL 2000 for text it is possible ti use
char
nchar
varchar
nvarchar
what must be used and for what ?
I want to store normal text with occidental char (accents)
thank you
Hi,
Which of the above data type (alongwith size) should be used for storing things like Customer Name, Company name etc . ???
Also, what really is the benefit of one over the over :confused:
Thanks
Hi,
I am working on an application that uses accent characters.
SELECT nchar(256) returns A. But if I do
SELECT Unicode(A) , then it returns 65 i.e. the value for simple 'A' character. I am confused, because I have data in nvarchar fields,
but when I do string comparison then A and A are treated as equal.
Please let me know, what could be the issue.
Thanks
When I tried to insert armenian by doing the following
insert into tablex (field1) values (N'testdata')
it does not display in query analyzer or in the database as armenian.
When I copy this to word it does not convert it.
What else am I supposed to do to get that information to redisplay the correct way and I would appreciate any tutorials or samples you can show or direct me to.

Hey there :)Sorry if I'm asking a dumb question here, but I'm still quite new to MS SQL,so this problem might appear larger to me than it really is.I'm trying to create a performance test environment for a Ruby on Rails andMongrel setup with an MS SQL Server 2000.The adapter, mssqlclient, uses some kind of "conversion" for unicode, here'sa quote from the homepage:"Automatically translate from proper UTF-16LE nvarchar fields in thedatabase to UTF-8 Ruby Strings you can display in your application"As far as the local DB designer knows, we're not using UTF16-LE nvarcharfields, unless it's something that happens implicitly.Either way, this is how a query from the mssqlclient adapter might look:SELECT TOP 1 * FROM Item WHERE (Item.Itemnumber = N'45783745')Response time the first couple of times was upwards of 20+ seconds, afterthe sql server has "awaken from its slumber", it's roughly 4 seconds.Omitting the "N" from the WHERE clause, response time is in milliseconds (asone would expect, regardless of the fact that there's currently >2.5million items in the table).Any tips on how to resolve this? Is the SQL statement bad, or is it aquestion of configuring SQL Server correctly?Thanks in advance for any help,Daniel Buus :)--http://www.rhesusb.dk

can anybody please explain me why microsoft using nvarchar/nchar instead of varchar/char in northwind database and pubs database. I know if a column holds unicode data you should use nvarchar or nchar but for me all those tables in northwind/pubs are not holding unicode data. but still why microsoft settled for nchar/nvarchar.
