Convert Column From NVARCHAR(MAX) To Money And Then Back Again.
Oct 8, 2007
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
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Procedure UpdatePropertyMap7, Line 59
Hi there,I have a table named Action. This table has a column InPrice with datatypenvarchar(12). I want to change its datatype from nvarchar(12) to money. Ibrowsed through the values and removed any dots. Th column now has onlynumeric values (and commas for decimal values such as 105,8). When I try tochange the datatype from nvarchar to money, following mesage is displayed:ADO error: Cannot convert a char value to money. The char value hasincorrect syntax.How can I solve this problem? I cannot figure out which values are causingthis error.Thanks in advance,Burak
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
Ok i know this is simple but i just don't know the syntax. What I haveis a bunch of values and i want to be able to display them as moneyvalues with a $ in front.eg.160000001000160000TO THIS$16,000,000.00$1000.00$16,000.000I'm using MS SQL 2000Cheers
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!
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?
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. --------------------------- OK ---------------------------
How do you use the convert function to change the data before the update? Thank You! :mad:
I have a column type of float and How to convert it show like this
default value =39260.80 MY db use this ',' seperator instead of '.' wanna convert 39,260
This code is working if using '.' seperator

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. The field that does not work is a varchar(500) field (named Description). I am not sure what the problem is. The error that I am getting is:
Msg 235, Level 16, State 0, Line 13
Cannot convert a char value to money. The char value has incorrect syntax.
Attached is the T-SQL Code. The declare and set statements in the beginning are for informational purposes. Any help is appreciated. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ declare @Match varchar(75)

Hi, How I can convert text '07012003' into datetime ?. If I am using below format and getting the error 'the conversion of char data type to smalldatetime data type resulted in an out-of-range smalldatetime value'
I have a data type float with a value of 10000487930 that I'm trying to insert into a data type nvarchar and am getting the result of '1.00005e+010'. I've tried cast(field as nvarchar) however this is not working. What might fix this? I cannot change the insert table data type.
I need to sort by an ntext field, but it won't let me do it.
However, if I cast the field as nvarchar(100), I can use ORDER BY on that.
Is there any reason that this is a bad idea? In my testing, ordering by a converted ntext field was actually *faster* than ordering by an nvarchar (same data in the fields).
So as the subject says, I have a few fields that are nvarchar but hold date information. Most of these fields I have been able to move to datetime easiliy enough, simply by going into edit mode for the table and converting the fields to datetime. But 1 field is giving me problems I keep getting this error. quote:- Unable to modify table. Arithmetic overflow error converting expression to data type datetime. The statement has been terminated.
I really dont know why I'm getting this error, but I"m assuming it may have to be something like one of the records may not be in date format. But I don't know if this is the case and I don't know how to locate where my problem is coming from. Any guidance is greatly appreciated.
problem is that the data I am trying to insert is of the type nvarchar. eg: 06.50 I need it to be converted to type decimal (or float) before it is inserted in the new table.
Is there a way to do this within the SELECT TOP expression?
Account Number Balance Percent 45678935 4596.00 0.3500 78965215 56.43 1.0000
This seems like it should be ridiculously easy, but I keep running into road blocks. Like I said, this is just a sample from my table. My real table has 90 columns in it and about half of them need to be changed to either a dollar representation or a percent.

I have imported a text file with various data into sql table. all these values have been imported as nvarchar. I need to convert these into Integer. the format of the values is 10length i.e. 0000000.00. example of data: 0001028.99 - needs to be shown as 1028.99 222.00 - needs to be shown as 222.00 0000190.89 - needs to be shown as 190.89 2708.99 - needs to be shown as 2708.99 00000-50.99 - needs to be shown as -50.99 -109.79 - needs to be shown as -109.70
as you can see some of the values have leading zeros and some don't. i have tried converting from nvarchar to int and i get the error cannot convert nvarchar to int, i believe it may be because the data contains negative values as well as positive values.
Is there a split function or position function which i can use to extract the data? or any other methods which i can use would be really helpful.
HI All, 1)I have a question. I have a column in nvarchar format which is called close_date and is in the following format: 29.02.2008 ( example). I need to convert it to date format.I also add that data conversion not working as column apper blank on table. Do you have any idea?
2)Also the second problem is how to unzip the file stored on the shared drive in the package before uploading.
I'm working with a horrible database! The field I'm having issues with is a negative number stored as a nvarchar, but it's not stored in a consistent format. I need to convert the field to a decimal (9,2) but I can't because of the negative sign.
