Change Datatype From Varchar To Bigint Not Working
Nov 14, 2007
Hello,
I would like to change the datatype on a particular column from varchar to bigint across 100's of tables within a database.
I have the command ready which is:
ALTER TABLE tablename ALTER COLUMN columnname BIGINT
The problem happening is that it seems there are constraints across all the columns in every tables.
The error message is:
Server: Msg 5074, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
The object 'DF__tablename__columnname__0ABD916C' is dependent on column 'columnname'.
Server: Msg 4922, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
ALTER TABLE ALTER COLUMN columnname failed because one or more objects access this column.
I understand that if I delete this constraint, then it will let me modify the datatype of the column, but since there are tons of them and they are randomly named, how do I achive changing the datatype across multiple tables in bulk.

HI,I have a table with IDENTITY column with the datatype as INTEGER. Nowthis table record count is almost reaching its limt. that is totalrecord count is almost near to 2^31-1. It will reach the limit with inanother one or two months.In order to avoid the arithmentic overflow error 8115, we would likechange the datatype from INT to BIGINT. we hope this will solve ourproblem.How do I approch this datatype conversion?. Since the data count ishuge, that leads to a long down time of database.we need better approach or solution for this problem?. kindly give mea better solution that will reduce the total downtime of the productiondatabase.?.Regards

I want to write the following query.
SELECT CASE WHEN Member.CuApplicationDocFK = 'NULL' THEN 'Existing' ELSE 'New' END AS MemberType

But the problem is Member.CuApplicationDocFK is bigint type. When I run the query it gives a error message saying "error converting data type varchar to bigint.
Can anyone tell me how to fix this please?

I have the following query which has been giving me headaches for days : SELECT SCCode [Service Catalog Code], FileName [File Name], FullName [Full Name], FileExtension [Extension], FileSize [Size], Author [Author], CONVERT(VARCHAR(50),CAST(LastModified AS SMALLDATETIME), 120) [Last Modified], CONVERT(VARCHAR(50),CAST(LastAccessed AS SMALLDATETIME), 120) [Last Accessed], TimesAccessed [Downloads], UploadedBy [Uploaded By], CONVERT(VARCHAR(50),CAST(UploadedAt AS SMALLDATETIME), 120) [Uploaded At] FROM #TempTable WHERE id > @firstitem AND id < @lastitem ORDER BY CASE WHEN @sortcolumn = 'Service Catalog Code' THEN SCCode WHEN @sortcolumn = 'File Name' THEN FileName WHEN @sortcolumn = 'Extension' THEN FileExtension WHEN @sortcolumn = 'Size' THEN FileSize WHEN @sortcolumn = 'Author' THEN Author WHEN @sortcolumn = 'Last Modified' THEN CONVERT(VARCHAR(50),CAST(LastModified AS SMALLDATETIME), 120) WHEN @sortcolumn = 'Last Accessed' THEN CONVERT(VARCHAR(50),CAST(LastAccessed AS SMALLDATETIME), 120) WHEN @sortcolumn = 'Downloads' THEN TimesAccessed WHEN @sortcolumn = 'Uploaded By' THEN UploadedBy WHEN @sortcolumn = 'Uploaded At' THEN CONVERT(VARCHAR(50),CAST(UploadedAt AS SMALLDATETIME), 120) END ASCWhen my @sortcolumn parameter is either FileSize (BIGINT) or TimesAccessed (BIGINT) then the query returns the data without any problem. However, if I use a different @sortcolumn value such as "Author" then I keep getting "Error converting data type varchar to bigint."A solution that seems to work is to drop CASE and use lots of IF statements instead. I don't prefer to do this because it requires me to repeat the same select statement for each and every possible @sortcolumn value!Does anyone know how to solve this? Help!

The strange in this problem is that i got this problem suddenly and before all was running without any error.
The script that cause the error is in the trigger for insertion on a table, there is somewhere where i convert from varchar to bigint, but all seems fine to me i printed the varchar variable and the conversion looks valid, also i included several print statement in the script for debugging purposes and i feel everything is right and there shouldn't be any error.
I don't think anything changed in my db, so i wonder where this problem is comming from ?
this is the code:

I have a table that contains a lot of demographic information. The data is usually small (<20 chars) but ocassionally needs to handle large values (250 chars). Right now its set up for varchar(max) and I don't think I want to do this.
How does varchar(max) store info differently from varchar(250)? Either way doesn't it have to hold the container information? So the word "Crackers" have 8 characters to it and information sayings its 8 characters long in both cases. This meaning its taking up same amount of space?
Also my concern will be running queries off of it, does a varchar(max) choke up queries because the fields cannot be properly analyzed? Is varchar(250) any better?
Should I just go with char(250) and watch my db size explode?
Usually the data that is 250 characters contain a lot of blank space that is removed using a SPROC so its not usually 250 characters for long.
Any insight to this would be appreciated.

Hi all,
I am using a varchar datatype for PIN number to handle zero at start. Now i want to do mathematical calculation to encrypt the PIN so i need to convert that varchar datatype to int so that zero should not be discarted after conversion. i.e. 0123 and 123 must not be treated as same PIN.
Please kindly give me a way out. I am using RSA encryption.
Thanks in anticipation.
Haider Abbas.

When creating tables:
If varchar expands according to how long the actual string is in each case, then why not set the varchar max characters very high, rather than be conservative about it?
For example, if you think your names will only ever be 30 chars you could set that column to varchar(30).But -- why not go ahead and set the column to varchar(100) anyway to be safe? Or is there some hidden storage cost to using 100 rather than 30 max chars?

We have few stored procedures that use nvarchar datatype, this was not issue on SQL server 7.0 but in 2000 becomes a big issue.
For example query that runs for 3 minutes in SQL server 2000 by replacing NVARCHAR to VARCHAR the same query runs for 2 seconds.
The biggest challenge that I have deals with tables and user-defined datatypes of NVARCHAR that has been bounded to the table.
How can I alter those without data corruption?

Hi I have a varchar(8000) and currently XML files are stored in varchar(8000).Some times when i am doing manuplactions in my varchar column i am getting with special characters error. so now i want to keep my column varchar(MAX) and when i am doing calculations i will convert my varchar datatype to xml datatype. By doing this i hope there wont be any special character problems.
When i am doing calculations with the wellformed xml i am getting error for both convert and cast methods as below
I am trying to do convert(xml,MyVarcharColumn)
Implicit conversion from data type xml to nvarchar is not allowed. Use the CONVERT function to run this query.
Also i tried with casting and getting same problme. is there any way to convert
please suggest me
Thanks

I am building a table change log that will track each attribute update and include the original and new values.
[BatchYearMonthKey] [int] NULL,
[BatchYearMonthDayKey] [int] NULL,
[AccountID] [varchar](200) NULL,
[Attribute] [varchar] (200) NULL,
[Old_ValueAtrDefault] [varchar] (200) NULL,
[New_ValueAtrDefault] [varchar] (200) NULL,
[Old_ValueAtrLong] [varchar] (max) NULL,
[New_ValueAtrLong] [varchar] (max) NULL
The challenge that the spectrum of varchar lengths across the table. I have one attribute that requires varchar(max) and all other attributes (about 40) are varchar (200).
I am trying to accomplish the following:
Account ID Status
1 Enabled
Now changed to
AccountID Status
1 Disabled
My log table will look like the following:
[BatchYearMonthKey] BatchYearMonthDayKey] [AccountID] [Attribute] [Old_ValueAtrDefault] [New_ValueAtrDefault] [Old_ValueAtrLong] [New_ValueAtrLong]
201504 20150409 1 Status Enabled Disabled NULL NULL
My question:
I created two fields (Old_ValueAtrLong and New_ValueAtrLong) dedicated for the one attribute that is a varchar (max). I was trying to avoid storing [Status] for example that's a varchar(200) in a field that is varchar(max). Is this the right approach? Or are there other recommendations in how to handle storing the data in the most efficient manner?
