Converting (casting) From Decimal(24,4) To Decimal(21,4) Data Type Problem

Jul 24, 2006

Hello!



I would like to cast (convert) data type decimal(24,4) to
decimal(21,4). I could not do this using standard casting function
CAST(@variable as decimal(21,4)) or CONVERT(decimal(21,4),@variable)
because of the following error: "Arithmetic overflow error converting
numeric to data type numeric." Is that because of possible loss of the
value?

Thanks for giving me any advice,

Ziga

T-SQL (SS2K8) :: Getting Undesirable Trailing Zeros After Casting To Decimal

Sep 7, 2014

The following line of SQL returns the first screen shot below.

((T0.TotalSales - ISNULL(T1.TotalSales, 0)) - (T0.StockValue - ISNULL(T1.StockValue, 0))) / (T0.StockValue - ISNULL(T1.StockValue, 0)) * 100 AS 'Gross Profit %'

I now want to limit the decimal places to two (2), and one might think that using a CAST operation here is the solution, as follows.

CAST(((T0.TotalSales - ISNULL(T1.TotalSales, 0)) - (T0.StockValue - ISNULL(T1.StockValue, 0))) / (T0.StockValue - ISNULL(T1.StockValue, 0)) * 100 AS decimal(15,2)) AS 'Gross Profit %'

However in actuality I am still seeing too many decimal places, but the extra ones have changed to ZEROS!

Ideally I would like to have no extra trailing zeros. How to achieve this?

How To Disable Autmatic Round Of Of A Decimal Number In Sql Server Using Asp.net?

Jan 12, 2008

Hi all,
I am sorry if i am posting this error in an inappropriate froum.
Well in my asp.net intranet web application i want to enter a number to the database(sql sever 2005) that has a column(schoolkm) whose type is decimal(9, 2). Now if i want to enter the value 1.5 in the text box and enter that value to the database through interface then that value automatically rounds to 2. But when i get into the table and enter that value by hand then that value enters perfectly i.e. without rounding of. I want to know the reason and how can i cure this problem.

Adding Number Of Decimal Places During Table Design

Nov 3, 2006

Hello,

Nice easy one (hopefully) from a newbie on SQL 2000.

I have a table HolidayTakenBooked which is populated from a stored procedure via the following statement;

TRUNCATE TABLE HolidayTakenBooked
INSERT INTO HolidayTakenBooked
SELECT * FROM #TMP_HolidayTakenBooked ORDER BY ABR_Clock_No

I am finding that for certain values in the HolidayTakenBooked table decimals are not being transferred correctly. ie. 0.5 in the TMP table appears as 1 in the HolidayTakenBooked table.

I'm pretty sure that this is down to the data definition of the table see sample field below;
[HOL_DaysTaken1] [decimal](18, 0) NULL ,

So the simple question here is how do I define decimal places when I define a new table. When designing a new table in Enterprise Manager I select decimal and the server does not allow me to change the value of 9 it defaults to.

What simple thing I am not doing ?

Cheers
Neal

Split A Decimal Number Into The Integer Part And The Fraction Part

Dec 7, 2007

I have a table with a column named measurement decimal(18,1).  If the value is 2.0, I want the stored proc to return 2 but if the value is 2.5 I want the stored proc to return  2.5.  So if the value after the decimal point is 0, I only want the stored proc to return the integer portion.  Is there a sql function that I can use to determine what the fraction part of the decimal value is?  In c#, I can use
dr["measurement "].ToString().Split(".".ToCharArray())[1] to see what the value after the decimal is.

Data Type With Decimal Point For Decimal Values But Not For Whole Integers

Dec 8, 2013

I am creating a table on SQL Server. One of the columns in this new table contains whole integer as wells as decimal values (i.e. 4500 0.9876). I currently have this column defined as Decimal(12,4). This adds 4 digits after the decimal point to the whole integers. Is there a data type that will have the decimal point only for decimal values and no decimal point for the whole integers?

How Can I Use The Decimal Comma Instead Of Decimal Point For Numbers In Jet Engine?

Sep 19, 2007



I wanted to convert a dataset from vb.net (2.0) to an .XLS file, by MS Jet. My national standard is using decimal commas, not decimal points for numbers signing the beginning of decimal places.
But the MS Jet Engine uses decimal point,in default. Therefore, in the Excel file only string formatted cells can welcome this data, not number formatted.
How can I solve or get around this problem? (with jet if it possible)

Converting Decimal Point To Decimal Comma

Nov 30, 2007

Hi all,

I am designing some reports for a German branch of my company and need to replace decimal point with a comma and the thousand comma seperator with a decimal point.

e.g.
‚¬1,500,123.00 to ‚¬1.500.123,00

Is there a property that I can change in the report designer to allow this to happen or is this something I need to convert in a Stored Proc.

Any help would be much appreciated

Thanks!

Decimal Limited To 4 Digits To Right Of Decimal?

Jun 18, 2007





I need to store decimal values: decimal(20,15) in my SQL Server 2005 database.

I load data from flat file, convert it using Data Conversion Task to decimal(with scale: 15) and try to save it using OLE DB Destination.



It works fine for 4 digits after the decimal (like 1.1234), but always failes for more than 4 digits (1.12345).

Is the decimal limited to scale 4 ???



Thank you for your help!

Casting

Jul 3, 2007

Hello,

I'm new to SQL Server and I have to finish a VB.Net program from an employee that has left the company.

I have a table with column 'vanafdatum' witch has datatype char but they stored only dates in this column ( like this: 13/09/2006).

When I try to run the next querie I receive an error message "The conversion of a char data type to a datetime data type resulted in an out of range datetime value".

This is the querie I try to run


SELECT MAX(CAST(vanafdatum AS datetime)) AS vanaf_datum
FROM tarieven
WHERE (vanafdatum <
(SELECT getdate()))


Is there any way I can cast the char datatype to a datetime datatype without getting this error.
I allready tried to change the data type from char to datetime, but doesn't work either.
A possible solution is to erase the column an manually fill in all the fields again in the data type datetime, but that seems a little stupid to do.
So I wonder if there is a solution that can change the data type for all rows in the database without losing any data.

blah20060830blah

the date value in the middle changes each day. I'm trying to adjust this value with an expression. The expression doesn't want to cast my getdate function into a string that this property will accept. I know i'm missing something stupid.

SQL Casting Question

Oct 10, 2005

Hi,I've come across a problem that requires i cast a string to a date, had a go but can't get it to work properly.SELECT EventID, EventName, EventShortDesc, EventLink, EventStartDateFROM dbo.tbl_EventWHERE (CAST EventStartDate AS DATE) > GetDate()ORDER BY EventStartDate DESCBasically i only want events which haven't expired (were before the current date) to be returned. EventStartDate is held as an varchar(10) therefore needs to be cast before i can compare. Is this the best way or is there a better one? If it is how do i get it to work?Any help would be great thanks,drazic19

Multi Casting

Apr 6, 2006



Just a question about multi casting.

If I create a copy of a data set using a multi cast, do operations on one of the output sets effect the other output set?

For example, in one ouput set I'm setting a column to NULL - this is actually updating the other set as well. Is this meant to happen?

Thanks!!
