Casting Or Converting Smallint Datatype To Datetime
Sep 8, 2007
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 have a column which has 05MAY2006:04:34:00.000000 it is stored as varchar(25). I need to save it as datetime in the same column. I have tried using
update tablename
set columnname = (SUBSTRING(columnname,1,2) + '-' + SUBSTRING(columnname,3,3) + '-' +
SUBSTRING(columnname,6,4) + ' ' + SUBSTRING(columnname,11,8));
and then
alter table tablename
alter columnname datetime;
but later it shows up the error
Msg 242, Level 16, State 3, Line 1
The conversion of a varchar data type to a datetime data type resulted in an out-of-range value.
How do I change it any other opinion or any modification for the above query.

I have a dbfield which holds a smallint value for the time eg. 1406 . I have to add this value to a datetime value in another field but need the result as a datetime value.
The result would be time(int) + date(datetime) = datetime(datetime).
I need this to compare the hours between delivery and dispatch.
Thanks for your help

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?

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,

TotMatch =58
ToNOMatch=1
select @Agg = Cast(cast(cast(Max(TotMatch) as decimal) / cast((Max(TotNoMatch) + Max(TotMatch)) as decimal)* 100 as int) as varchar) + '%' FROM #Rpt;
select @Agg1= Cast(cast(cast(Max(TotNoMatch) as decimal) / cast((Max(TotNoMatch) + Max(TotMatch)) as decimal)* 100 as int) as varchar) + '%' FROM #Rpt;
Now what i am doing finding the percentage of total match
and then
finding the no mathc and percentage of both.
but when i get the answr.
@Agg=98
@Agg1=1.
so there is deficit of 1. how i can fix that.

I would expect this query:
select
case when cast(DT as int) = cast(cast(DT as float) as int)
then 'Consistent'
else 'Inconsistent'
end
from (select cast('27 Jan 2008 13:00' as datetime) as DT) X
to always return 'Consistent'. My expectation is not satisfied; the question is, is it unfounded?

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

Hi,
I need to take a value from a textbox and insert it into a field in my database which takes decimals. My problem, no matter what I try I cannot convert the value so that the database will accept it. This all happens when the submit button is hit on my webpage. Here is the cmdSubmit_click sub code:
Dim surveyNum As Decimal = Decimal.Parse(txtSurveyNum.Text, Globalization.NumberStyles.Number)
myCmd.CommandText = "INSERT INTO survey(ID) VALUES('" & surveyNum & "')"
myCmd.Parameters.Add("surveyNum", SqlDbType.Decimal)
myCmd.Parameters("surveyNum").Value = System.Convert.ToDecimal(txtSurveyNum.Text)
myConn.Open()
Try
myCmd.ExecuteNonQuery()
lblMessage.Text = "Record successfully updated"
Catch
lblMessage.Text = "Query error: " & Err.Description
End Try
myConn.Close()
Thnx in advance, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Exception in one of the stored procs:
Conversion failed when converting the nvarchar value to datatype int. After moving database from 2000 to 2005.
Using backup and restore.
Note I had the same issue after restoring the production database on my local server SQL2000->SQL2000.
The problem was solved by restoring master and msdb from the production. But I can't do this on the SQL2005.
This is not a collation issue as I have ensured collation is the same on all databases including the system ones.
The database in question makes extensive use of user defined data types (Which I have recreated on the destination server).
Can anyone please help?

I'm editing an SSIS package. The source column has datatype float and the data is stored like 1,2 instead of 1.2. To change this into a period instead of comma there is a derived column step in the ssis package. The expression in this derived column step to change this goes as:<o:p></o:p> (DT_STR ,32,1 252)(REPLACE((DT_STR,32,1252)SUBSCHAAL_SCORE,",","."))<o:p></o:p>
where SUBSCHAAL_SCORE is the name of the column. As you see the data is converted into a string. I need it to be converted into a numeric datatype (18,6) instead of string/varchar but it must also handle the first issue with changing the comma into a period. <o:p></o:p>

Hi all.
I'm using foxpro and I'm completely new to SQL. I'm trying to create a database into which I need to enter a time field. I've read around on the net that the only way to do this is using a datetime datatype but I can't find anywhere that explains the format I use to INSERT INTO my tables.
Anyone help?
*EDIT* I actually just want to enter the time and not the date and the time, I have read it is possible to do this using a convert but I'm happy enough to have the date and the time as I don't want to overcomplicate anything at this stage.

I have a computed column that I want to cast as decimal.
The two columns it calculates from are both varchar.
Why can I cast the column as INT, but when I try to cast as decimal, I get the following error?
Arithmetic overflow error converting varchar to data type numeric.
what this error means and why I get it only when I want to cast to decimal.

But I want to see model requests by an entire day ala:
Select * From ModelRequests Where RequestDateTime Like '9/21/2000%'
But I do know get any records returned.
What is the special way of dealing with the datetime datatype for these purposes?

Hello!
Here's the puzzle I'm trying to solve.
I have 2 columns (CreatedDate and StatusDate) in the table both of datetime datatype.
When I run query
select * from sale
where Statusadate = "11/30/2001" it returns rows back.
When I do the same but for CreatedDate column
select * from sale
where CreatedDate="11/30/2001" it returns zero rows back even if there are CreatedDates = "11/30/2001".
I don't understand why it works for one column and doesn't work for another one.
The example of CreatedDate value is "2001-11-30 10:10:33.000"
Thank you,
Lena
