Conditional Statement With A Cast From String To Date

Feb 5, 2007

My source file is showing column 10 as string. My destination table is datetime. I am using the derived transformation with a conditional statement. How do I convert the value from string to date. Everywhere I try the (DT_DATE) I get an error.

[Column 10] == "01/01/0001" ? " 01/01/1801" : [Column 10] <= "12/31/1801" ? "12/31/1801" : [Column 10]

Cast From String To Date

Sep 21, 2006

I created an SSIS package that pulls in legacy data from a DB2 AS400. There is an In Date field that is stored on the AS400 as OdbcType.Date or DATE. However, when I use SSIS to pull in the data, SQL wants it to be a string so I gave up and let SQL have it's way.

Now in my SELECT statement, I have this:

SELECT TLMST.TLNUMBER, TLMST.DOGNAM, BRDMST.BRDesc, TLMST.INDT
FROM TLMST INNER JOIN
BRDMST ON TLMST.BRDCOD = BRDMST.BreedNumber
WHERE (TLMST.INDT >= @startdate) AND (TLMST.INDT <= @enddate)
ORDER BY TLMST.INDT, TLMST.TLNUMBER

Because I see the dates stored in TLMST are yyyy-mm-dd format, this is not working. It is not pulling any records. I tried to use the CAST statement but I keep getting errors about casting from a string to a date and data overflow errors.

Should I go back and re-do the SSIS or is there a way to pull the records for this? Thanks for the information

Cast From String &"&" To Type 'Date' Is Not Valid

Mar 12, 2006

Hello, I am using an SQLDataReader called DrCoInfo to check if any matching records exist in a table.

My code is as such:

Line 120:While DrCoInfo.Read()
Line 121: If DrCoInfo("DateOfMan") <> "" Then
Line 122: BValid = True
Line 123: End If

However, it fails to work with the message :System.InvalidCastException: Cast from string "" to type 'Date' is not valid.

Any suggestions? Thanks.

How To Cast Empty String

Mar 22, 2006

I want to replace a column value with a null if the string is empty. I would have thought this simple expression would do it:

RTRIM([FromContractSymbol]) == "" ? NULL(DT_STR, 0, 1252) : (DT_STR, 6, 1252)FromContractSymbol

Yet, I get the following error:

For operands of the conditional operator, the data type DT_STR is supported only for input columns and cast operators. The expression "...see above..." has a DT_STR operand that is not an input column or the result of a cast, and cannot be used with the conditional operation.

The expression works if I replace the NULL(DT_STR, 0, 1252) with say "A" and the expression works on other non-string columns. (As in "NULL(DT_I1) : (DT_I1)100")

It must be something I'm overlooking but I keep getting an error message that this statement can't parse.

UPDATE product SET supplier = LEFT(supplier,LEN(supplier-4)) + CAST( '2100' AS varchar(4)) WHERE actualid = 'IS2100-CO2-CO2-0-4-I'

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Case Statement Using Cast

Jan 28, 2007

Hi guys,

The value in the field ACCOUNTS.ACCOUNTKEY is something like: '3130005'

I need to read the characters from position 4 to 6. If the value of that Substring is equal to the VALUE Zero then write "Zero".

In the code below, the first "case" is working nice, but the second (red one) is getting ERROR.

Please Help.

"SELECT ACCOUNTS.ACCOUNTKEY," _
& " Case When SUBSTRING(ACCOUNTS.ACCOUNTKEY, 4, 3)= '000' then 'Zero'" _
& " Case When CAST(SUBSTRING(ACCOUNTS.ACCOUNTKEY, 4, 3) as int) =0 then 'Zero'" _
& " Else 'Unknown'" _
& " End " _
& "AS 'Finding Zero' "
Thanks in advance,

Aldo.

How do I change the format of the Date:

Type Cast Error Converting From Integer To String

Oct 30, 2007

I am attempting to convert an integer value to a string using the Derived Column transformation with the following expression on the field:
(DT_STR,10,1252)prod_id

prod_id is an integer. I was able to do this before however, in the past couple of days, this has failed with the following error:
"An error occurred while attempting to perform a type cast."


To my knowledge, I have not changed anything about this particular data flow within the past couple of days. I have verified that the value is coming in as an integer.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cast A Varchar As A Date

Mar 5, 2007

I have developed a CF application and now need to add some charts to it for admin purposes. I have a form page that uses a calendar widget to let a manager select a date range and submits to display data for that timeframe. I need to convert the formfields to a date for my WHERE clause in my query. My experience to this point has just been simple queries of one table. below is a sample I found and modified numerous time to try and make it work with no success.

Can anyone give me a hand with this?

SELECT COUNT ((CHG_TYP_CD)) AS CHG_TYP,
CHG_TYP_CD
FROM WRK_RQS
WHERE(CAST('form.startdate' AS datetime) >= RQS_SBM_TS)
AND
(CAST('form.startdate' AS datetime) <= RQS_SBM_TS)

T-SQL (SS2K8) :: Using CAST Or CONVERT To Change Data From String To Datetime?

Apr 16, 2014

i am trying to take a field that has part of a date in it, so I have to parse it out as follows:

SUBSTRING(a1.Field1, 3, 2) + SUBSTRING(a1.Field1,5,2) + '20' + LEFT(a1.Field1,2)

This is because a date of 04/16/2014 will show as 160416 in the first part of the field I need to parse it out of, thus becoming 04162014.

From there I then need to convert this "date" into a legitimate SQL datetime type, so that I can then run a DATEDIFF to compare it to when the record was actually entered, which is a separate field in the table, and already in datetime format.

When I use the below statement, I am getting the message that, "Conversion failed when converting date and/or time from character string."

CAST((SUBSTRING(a1.Field1, 3, 2) + SUBSTRING(a1.Field1,5,2) + '20' + LEFT(a1.Field1,2)) as datetime)

I also tried CONVERT(datetime, (SUBSTRING(a1.Field1, 3, 2) + SUBSTRING(a1.Field1,5,2) + '20' + LEFT(a1.Field1,2)), and got the same message.

how I can parse that field, then convert it to a datetime format for running a DATEDIFF statement?

Trying To Use COALESCE/ISNULL With CAST In Select Statement

Aug 27, 2007

Hello Everyone,

I'm new to SQL within the past year and am having quite a bit of difficulty trying to replace NULL in a column cast as smalldatetime. What i'd like to do is return the value "EMPLOYEED" within any record containing a null value, obviously I need to CAST the column to a varchar but when I try and do this I keep getting errors. I'm trying hard to find the answer online but the only examples I get are is for money and i'm not sure i'm completely understanding how this is supposed to work. I've also tried using the ISNULL function as well - getting the same errors in this case (though i'm using ISNULL successfully in another column).

It seems to me that I should be able to write the syntax as the following:


CAST(ISNULL(TerminationDate, 'EMPLOYEED') AS Varchar(20)) AS TerminationDate

----OR---


CAST(COALESCE(TerminationDate, 'EMPLOYEED') AS Varchar(20)) AS TerminationDate




I'm new enough that I could just be confusing myself, but I really seriously cannot find any good explanations or examples online for what I am trying to do.

Can some nice SQL expert provide assistance?

Thanks!!!!!

Passing GUID Into Dtexec, Invalid Cast To A String Variable. Solution??

Oct 4, 2006

I am getting an invalid cast specification when I call dtexec and try to /SET a user variable within the package that is defined as a string data type. Is there any solution to this? I have tried passing the GUID with {} w/o {} w/ '' w/ "" etc.. many variations... and still get an invalid cast specification. Is there a data type that I need to set the User variable to besides String? The User Variable is used to Select records from a SQL data source where the GUID is stored. I do not have an option of GUID data type for a User Variable.

Thanks for any help! Aaron B.

SQL Conditional WHERE Statement

Feb 4, 2008

Hi, is it possible to do a conditional WHERE in T-SQL? I have a table with a column that consists of a reference that starts with either a single alpha character or two alpha characters followed by four numeric digits (the numeric portion is always unique but the alpha isn’t). E.g. A1234, AB1235, AB1236, C1237, HT1238. What I want to do is select a range of rows based on the numeric portion of this reference column. In other words I want to select say 50 rows starting from row 1000 (rows 1000 to 1050) regardless of whether there is one or two alpha characters preceding the numerics.The Stored procedure I have so far works (using COUNT for testing) for selecting a range of rows that has two alpha's at the start. However, if I simply add an OR to the WHERE to select rows where there is a single alpha in the reference column, when a single alpha reference is found it will fail the first logical check for two alpha's giving an error condition. Therefore, how can I incorporate a conditional WHERE using IF or some alternative method, so that it will also give me all the rows in the number sequence that start with either single or double alpha's within the same SELECT / WHERE statement?

Thanks for any help.ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[sp_Test]

(
@startRef int,
@endRef int
)

AS

BEGIN

SELECT Count(*) FROM myTable
WHERE ((SUBSTRING(Ref,3,LEN(Ref)-2) BETWEEN @startRef AND (@startRef + @endRef)))

Conditional WHERE Statement?

Jul 23, 2005

Hi all,I have one for all the blackbelters out there: is there a way i canmake a stored procedure where i can control the where statement withvariables? I have to do some complex transformations to get compose afact table for MSAS and there a a lot of similarities between thequeries and a few differences because of different account methodsetc. (booking in starting date, booking stuff on order entry datesetc) I want to put a combination of different rules in differentmembers of dimensions.An example of what i mean:CREATE STORED PROCEDURE dbo.FILLFACT (@PAR1, @PAR2)ASINSERT INTO FactTable (blah blah)SELECTIF @PAR1 = 'OrderDate'SourceView.OrderdateELSESourceView.StartDate,etc etc...FROMSourceViewWHEREIF @PAR2 = 'WholeTable'1=1IF @PAR2 = 'Incomplete'EndDate IS NULL OR EXIST (SELECT * FROM Exceptions WHERE...., etc)This way i could fill my fact table withEXEC dbo.FillFact 'beginDate','Wholetable'EXEC dbo.FillFact 'begindate', 'Rulebook1'EXEC dbo.FillFact 'BeginDate', 'Exceptions'etcetera.This is not an actual SQL script i use, just an example of what i'mtalking about. Or maybe i could pass the where statement entirley as avariable? But i can't use SET @PAR1 = 'EndDate IS NULL' and then useWHERE @PAR1 can I?I hope i'm making sense. Does anyone know if this is possible? Rightnow i have a procedure that is composed of a dozen of sql scripts thatare mostly the same, but i have to copy it for every combination ofsituations and then, of course, new stuff has to be added on 12different places. Again and again.Any thoughts?TIA,Gert-Jan van der Kamp

Using The IF EXISTS Conditional Statement

Apr 5, 2007

I'm trying to gather some user statistics based on 3 conditions. First I want to check if the referring querystring is already in the database. If not insert it into the db. Second, if the querystring is already in the database, then check if the ip-address of the user is already in the database. If it is, then check if the ip address was inserted today. If not, update the "refCountIn" field with +1. The problem lies in the third condition where we check if the ip-address was inserted today and if false, update the "refCountIn" field with +1 and if true, do nothing.Below is the code I have until now:  1 Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load

44
45 updConnCmd.Connection.Open()
46 updConnCmd.ExecuteNonQuery()
47 updConnCmd.Connection.Close()
48

Anyone with an idea on how to solve this one? I think I need to write a subquery for the third condition, but I don't have a clue on how to handle this.Thanks in advance for your help!

SQL Help: Conditional Statement Using Inserted

Oct 29, 2007

I'm learning SQL and here I'm trying to use two things that I'm not familiar with - IF statements and the Inserted temporary table.
Here's the background - skip this paragraph if you like. I'm working on a tasking system for the Help Desk - they get requests from the web site for various items and I break up the request into Software, Hardware, Accounts, etc tables and list the status of each item as "Requested". I'm also keeping a Tasks table to make work orders for each item requested. I've got triggers on the Accounts and Hardware tables that automatically make a new task for those items but the Software is more tricky because all software for a given request should be just one task. Software installs are all done by one person at the same time.
So I'm trying to make a trigger that creates a new Task when a new Software record is inserted. But if a task already exists with the same RequestID (meaning they requested two peices of software and this is the second one), then I just want to update the task already created. Here's what I got:
 1 CREATE TRIGGER [NewSoftwareTask]
2 ON [dbo].[Software]

40 GO

It keeps balking at lines 12 and 17 saying "The multi-part identifier "inserted.RequestsID" could not be bound." The ELSE statement is what I use on the other tables and it works fine so the inserted temp record seems pretty straightforward but I must be doing something wrong...

Conditional Select Statement

Mar 23, 2004

Hello dbForumers,

Yet another puzzling question. I remember I saw somewhere a particular syntax to select a column based on a conditional predicate w/o using a user defined function. What I want to accomplish is this : SELECT (if column colA is empty then colB else colA) as colC from SomeTable. Possible ? Not possible? Have I hallucinated ?

Thank You!
