I want to print in an error message a money value but have to convert it to a varchar first. I do not have any clue how to do this. Could someone help me out?
SELECT @iError = @@error, @iRowCount = @@rowcount
IF(@iError <> 0 OR @iRowCount <> 1)
BEGIN
CONVERT(@dValue, @cValue)
set @cError = 'Error attempting to insert new record. Product : ' + @cProduct + ' Sub-account : ' + @cSubAccount + ' Cost : $' + @cValue
RAISERROR(@cError, 16, 1)
END
@cValue is a varchar(20)
@dValue is money
Any help?

I write using the SQL ODBC driver from software into a SLQ table called UPSSHIPMENT the format is as followed:
JobNumber varchar 50
Weight real 4
FreightCost varchar 8
TrackingNumber varchar 50
Shipmethod varchar 50
VOIDID varchar 3
I then have a trigger set to update the PACKAGE table as followed
CREATE TRIGGER [UPS] ON dbo.UPSSHIPMENT
FOR INSERT
AS
BEGIN
UPDATE PACKAGE
SET WEIGHT = inserted.WEIGHT,
FREIGHTCOST = inserted.FREIGHTCOST,
TRACKINGNUMBER = inserted.TRACKINGNUMBER,
COMMENTS = inserted.SHIPMETHOD
FROM PACKAGE
INNER JOIN inserted on PACKAGE.JOBNUMBER = inserted.JOBNUMBER
WHERE inserted.VOIDID = 'N'
UPDATE PACKAGE
SET WEIGHT = '',
FREIGHTCOST = '0.00',
TRACKINGNUMBER = '',
COMMENTS = 'UPS VOID'
FROM PACKAGE
INNER JOIN inserted on PACKAGE.JOBNUMBER = inserted.JOBNUMBER
WHERE inserted.VOIDID = 'Y'
END
The format of the PACKAGE table is as followed
Jobnumber varchar 50
FreightCost money 8
TrackingNumber varchar 50
Comments varchar 2000
Weight real 4
I am getting the following error
---------------------------
Microsoft SQL-DMO (ODBC SQLState: 42000)

Error 260: Disallowed implicit conversion from data type varchar to data type money, table 'TESTing.dbo.Package', column 'FreightCost'. Use the CONVERT function to run this query.

How do you use the convert function to change the data before the update? Thank You!

Hi i've a staging table were i have datatypes of nchar.
I'd like to convert these to money datatype
Am trying to do this like this but the data return is not correct there is aslo null and blank rows so i must account for them also.
select cast(IsNumeric((Value2)) as money)
fromtbl_Sales
cast(round([YearlyProfit]-[MonthlyProfit],0)as int),
cast(round(isnull(sum(SalesProfit]),0),0) as int
How can I convert these columns to money so that I can display the result with comma included.
We have the same database in three different environment. The statement below works just fine in two database environment, but I am getting the error in the third one. All the databases are Microsoft SQL Server 2005. I could not pine point the source of the issue. Please any input that you might be able to provide. Thanks
The issue in simplest from
DECLARE @UDF_Value nvarchar(255)
set @UDF_Value = 111
SELECT CONVERT(money, @UDF_Value)
Msg 235, Level 16, State 0, Line 1
Cannot convert a char value to money. The char value has incorrect syntax.
I've been trying to solve this problem or just find an alternative to do this. I have filled a temp table with certain values for all columns except those columns that rely on calculations that need certain cell values from other columns in the temp table. I have a while statement that runs through each cell for one calculation column and this is the code that updates the fields on the calc column:
Code Block
EXEC('UPDATE #tblTemp
SET #tblTemp.['+@CalcColumns+'] = (CAST(ISNULL((SELECT #tblTemp.['+@Column1+']
FROM #tblTemp
WHERE #tblTemp.PK = '''+@PubKey+'''), 0.00)as money) - CAST(ISNULL((SELECT #tblTemp.['+@Column2+']
FROM #tblTemp
WHERE #tblTemp.PK = '''+@PubKey+''') , 0.00)as money))
WHERE #tblTemp.PK = '''+@PubKey+'''')
The problem is that it will not let me convert the two values to money. The error is:
Msg 235, Level 16, State 0, Line 1
Cannot convert a char value to money. The char value has incorrect syntax.
This is necessary to calculate the difference between these two cells from the temp table. I would appreciate any help! Thanks!

if I 'print' a MONEY value, or cast a MONEY variable to VARCHAR, it automatically rounds it to two decimal places. Maybe that's a built-in convenience, but I'd like to make it not do that.My workaround right now is to first cast my MONEY variabled to DECIMAL(30,4), and then cast the result to VARCHAR, but I'd like to avoid that step if possible.Consider the following
query:DECLARE @UnitCost MONEY SET @UnitCost = .0167 SELECT @UnitCost,
CAST(@UnitCost AS VARCHAR(30)),
CAST(CAST(@UnitCost AS DECIMAL(30, 4)) AS VARCHAR(30)) -
- Results in: 0.0167, 0.02, 0.0167
Hi Guys
I need your help again, I am try to update several columns and the data type is 'money'.
Below is the code I have used:
UPDATE CAT_Products SET
UnitCost ='10.00',UnitCost2 = '10.00',UnitCost3 = '10.00',UnitCost4 = '10.00',UnitCost5 = '10.00',UnitCost6 = '10.00'
WHERE ProductCode = '0008'
But it will not update, instead I get this error:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>[Error] Script lines: 1-9 -------------------------- Disallowed implicit conversion from data type varchar to data type money, table 'dbo.CAT_Products', column 'UnitCost'. Use the CONVERT function to run this query.
More exceptions ... Disallowed implicit conversion from data type varchar to data type money, table '.dbo.CAT_Products', column 'UnitCost2'. Use the CONVERT function to run this query.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The error message indicates that I need to use the convert function. But the columns data type is set at 'money' not 'varcher' . So do I need to convert data type to 'varcher' in order to update and convert back to data type 'money' when update complete? Or do I need to indicate in the update statement that data type is already 'money'? I am not sure how I would either.
Thanks
Hi,
I'm using the data type "money" in my SQL database and want to convert what's in txtPrice_textBox to the "money" format. I'm currently using the following code:
' objectCym.price = Convert.ToInt16(txtPrice_textBox.Text) '
Will this work? Is there any reason I should stay away from the "Money" data type?
Thanks,
David

I need to always have a formatting of 999,999,999.00 in a column called PropertyMap9.
PropertyMap9 is always a nvarchar(max)
How do I SET a value using a CONVERT or CAST to accomplish this ?
Why does this give me a syntax error ? The PropertyMap7 set actually works and performs the calculation and sets the new value for that row, however the next line gives an error. I need all 3 columns PropertyMap9, 8, and 7 to always have the above formatting, while still maintaining the nvarchar(max) datatype in the column. HELP!
update PropertyMapValues
set PropertyMap7 = CONVERT(NVARCHAR(MAX),CAST(PropertyMap8 AS money) - (CAST(PropertyMap9 AS money)),1)
set PropertyMap9 = CONVERT(NVARCHAR(MAX),CAST(PropertyMap9 AS money))
END

I am trying to write a Procedure in SQL 2005 that retreives a list of rows from the database. I pass to the procedure sorting parameters. This procedure works fine for all of the fields that I enter in the Order By, except for one.

I am not sure what the problem is.
The error that I am getting is:

I am trying to run this statement
Select Calims, ProCode From Inquiry Where ProCode Between 80000 and 89999
ProCode is a varchar but I am still checking a range on it.
It seem to work fine but then there is some invalid data entry in this column
for example 'abace' or '100i' so I get the error.
1) how I can exclude them out of my query.
Someone suggested the following but I dont understand how do achieve that. thanks
" However, there would appear to be different data types. If Value is a character
--based type then you may want to limit the search by first extracting numeric values
-- with something like ISNUMERIC(Value) = 1 and then converting them to numerics using
--the convert function - CONVERT(int, Value) BETWEEN 10000 and 20000."

Hi
In my MSSSQL database I have a table that contains "AGE" and its datatype is varchar.
I want to calculate the min(age) and max(age).
But the AGE field's datatype is varchar and I canot do any mathematical functions.
In Oracle There is a code for doing that.I think this is the code
select max(tonumber(age));
what is it's MSSQL equivalent.

Hi
I have a varchar field with values like "Jun 13 1995 12:" I want to change the type of the field to Date and the format of the values to "mm/dd/yyyy".
If I change the type of the field in the design view to Date, SQL gives me an error saying that the type cannot be changed and data would be lost.
So I think changing the dates to the mm/dd/yyyy format first and then changing the field type from varchar to date would work.
Can someone please help me as how to do this.
