This is what I would like to do:
===========
Declare @chvBOLNumber
Set @chvBOLNumber='0001234'
Select * from BOL where BOLNumber=@chvBOLNumber
I want to return the row/rows when BOLNumber=1234
============
The problem is the leading zeros. @chvBOLNumber can be 01234 or 001234 or ...
Hope the above makes sense. How can I do this ? (probably using wildcards)
I would like to add leading zeros in the date. Thsi is my existing procedure, it adds leading zeros, but it formats using "yyyy/mm/dd", instead of "yyyy-mm-dd" Select Id, Title, CONVERT(VARCHAR(10), ModifiedON, 111) --CAST(YEAR(ModifiedOn) AS VARCHAR(4))+'-'+CAST(MONTH(ModifiedOn) AS VARCHAR(2))+'-'+CAST(DAY(ModifiedOn) AS VARCHAR(2))as ModifiedOn From ActiveAds Where Row between @startRowIndex And @endRowIndex
I have a situation where I need to display an integer with leading zeros, with a defined length. Example, 43 appears as 00043 when the length is 5 and 000043 when the length is 6.
I tried using "=Format(Fields!DirID.Value.ToString)" with different variations to no avail.
mssql 2000, asp.net(vbscript) How am i able to trim leading zeros? Right now i have two values:00000005 500000010 1000000015 15..... etc... how do i write a query where i can select an argument where 5 = 0000005? the column with 00000005 is varchar and5 is numeric
I have a problem while importing data from Excel to SQL Server.The leading zeros in data get truncated.Even if I try and change the excel data column as 'Text' and copy paste the data back into the Text column, the problem persists.Does any one have any thoughts about this problem?
I have an SSIS routine which uses a simple SQL select statement from a SQL Server 2005 database and then goes to a Flat File destination. The field (dischstatuscode) is a nvarchar(50) and it may contain data with leading zeros.
Code Snippet Select DischStatusCode from dbo.pm
...which returns: 01 23 37 05 04 41
When I open up the csv file produced by the SSIS routine, I see the following: 1 23 37 5 4 41
I am creating a view which involved concatenation of 2 int columns.
The data in the columns look like
Column 1 Column 2 1234 1 12345 11
I am trying to get the following output
001234001 012345011
So the first column should have zeros padded to the front to make 6 numbers, the second column should be 3 numbers long with zeros in front. So when added together it is 9 numbers long.
What is the best way to change an output of P0123 to 123? i.e. drop the letter 'P' and also any leading zeros. We have a report that outputs terminal ID's which range from P0001 through to P0536.
I can drop the 'P' easily enough, but how I can drop the P000 from terminal ID P0001 for example.
I'm using varchar as a datatype and my leading zeros are chopped-off once ther data reaches my Stored Proc. The table will allow me to store the values with leading zeros if I enter them manually, but I cannot insert them via ASP/StoredProc.
Hi All, I need to set up a kind of identity insert that gives an output in the format: 00001, 00002, 00003 etc. Is there a formatting option for this sort of output using normal identity insert features or do I need to write a function to insert these values (perhaps as text) each time a new record is created? Sorry if this is really simple but it's only my 4th day in this job! Marcha
I am reposting this from the VB IDE forum, becaue I received no response
Using VS05 SP1 Pro/SQL Express...
There are two tables, UserIDs and Recordings (which has a foreign key relating it back to UserIDs).
I created a Stored Procedure via Server Explorer that returns the user ID for a given Foreign Key in Recordings table. If the UserID is "0001", then "0001" is return (userIDs are stored as strings). The stored procedure works every time.
I then created a table adpater that uses the above stored procedure. The table adapter is used in code. It has always worked fine, but i have discovered if the user ID starts with 0, those zeros are trimmed by the table adapter .
should result in a userID of "0001", but instead results in "1", which, from a string view point, is incorrect. As strings, "0001" and "1" are totally different, and the "1" fails when you do a fill for the table UserIDs.
So, the Stored Procedure and the Table Adapter using the same Stored Procedure return different results, with the Table Adapter being wrong. Why is it trimming the zeros? Is there anyway to stop that so the results are correct?
I have a business rule in my environment where I need to insert right justified leading zeros in the column. For example if the value to be inserted is 12 than it should be inserted as 0000012. How can I do this
Looking at an execution plan the conversion of NVARCHAR(15) to BIGINT is a big yellow exclamation NO NO. However, the numbers in the NVARCHAR(15) have leading zeros.
Technically speak 0123456789 is not an INTEGER or BIGINT, the performance of my Stored Procs is there any way to allow leading zeros in a BIGINT Field?
I am trying to export the result of a select into a .csv file using SQL Server 2000 DTS. The data for varchar fields has leading zeroes in the database, which is very much required in the csv file.
But, the .csv file trims the leading zeroes. How do we force to maintain the same data as in source?
I had used Text File Destination Connection as the destination, with the below options File Extension: .csv File Format: Delimited File Type: ANSI Text Qualifier: Double Quotes ("") Row Delimiter: {CR}{LF} Column Delimiter: comma
Source Data: 0123 Target Data (Requirement): 0123
The data in .csv: 123 (This is the issue)
When I open this file in a Text Editor, I do see the data in double quotes..."0123".
I am migrating mainframe data to SQL Server 2005 and have found that from a mainframe character field with leading zeros for example the value of 00023 to a SQL Server column defined as varchar (5) the resulting column value is 23 not 00023. I need the leading zeros because these are account ids, etc. So the value is 00023 not 23. Is this some setting in SQL Server 2005 that needs to be changed or what? This is not a numeric field on the mainframe or a numeric column for SQL Server.
Logic:ensure the Docket number is 5 digits and populate with leading zeros if not.I have to check input number field is 5 digits, if not I have to populate with leading zeros to make it as 5 digits.
I have a query in a SSRSreport that returns a value that looks like '012345'. The value looks fine on the report preview screen.
When the report is exported to excel, that value is displayed in a cell as '012345'. When I click out of the field, excel is dropping the leading zero and converting the value in the field to 12345.
Why is this happening and i have converted the value as string as well using expression.
I have a table with one column. The values can be Y or N. How do I compare the 2 values and return a result depending on the comparison. For example, if I my column data looks like this.
Y N
I need to compare them and if they match return a specific value and if they are different return a specific value.
How to select a column to compare two values in it with AND
Select distinct c.reg#, a.fname, a.lname, to_char(b.L#) as "L" from employee a, driver b, trip c where a.e#=b.e# and b.l#=c.l# and (c.reg#='PKR3344'AND c.reg#='WWF1155') order by c.reg#;

I need to determine if a value for a group of rows is the same or different and I am not sure where to begin. I am fairly new to writing T-Sql code. I am working with SQL Server 2005. This is a work assignment; I am not a student.
I have two tables: One for Course and another for CourseDays. As the Course table implies, it lists courses for a school. The CourseDays tables has a row for each day a course is held. For instance, one course maybe held on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, so there would be three rows, one row for each day. A given course could be held in a different room for each day. I am trying to write a query that returns one row for each course, and if the room number is the same for each day the class is held, return that room number in the row, else return 'Various'.
Course table: CourseID, Desc 1 English 2 History 3 Science
CourseDays table: CourseID, Day, RoomID 1 M 320 1 W 445 1 F 680 2 T 123 2 Th 123 3 M 514 3 T 514 3 W 521 3 Th 901 3 F 521
Expected results: CourseID, Desc, RoomID 1 English Various 2 History 123 3 Science Various
I simplified the example, as there are about 30 columns in the table and about half a million rows.
I receive the input file with some 100 columns and some 20k+ rows and I want to check the incoming input row is existed in the database or not based on 2 key columns. If the row is existed then I need to check all the columns (nearly 100 columns) values in input and the database are equal or not. If both are equal I need to treat them seperately if not there is a seperate logic. How Can I do that check for each row and for each column?
Basically the algorithm is like this, if the input file row is not existed in the database then treat that as new row else if the input row is existed in the database then check all the columns are equal or not. If all the columns are equal then treat that as existing row and do nothing else if some columns are not equal then treat this row seperately.
I found some thing to achieve the above thing. 1. Take the input row and check in the database. 2. If the row is not found in the database then treat it as new row. 3. If row is found in the database then a) Take the source row and prepare a concatenated string for all the columns b) Take the database row and prepare a concatenated string for all the columns c) Find out the hash code for the 2 strings and then compare hash codes for equal.
The disadvantage of this is running a loop 2*m*n times where m is the number of rows and n is the number of columns. It should be done 2 times for input file row and database row.
Can anybody suggest a good method to do this?
What does the function "GetHashCode" for InputBuffer in method "Public Overrides Sub Input0_ProcessInputRow(ByVal Row As Input0Buffer)" will do? Will it generates hash code based on all the columns values?
