Hi ,
I have a hexadecimal string value. I want to convert it to Bigint in Sql Server 2005.
The Hexadecimal value is '0x000000000000000F'.
How is it possible to convert into Bigint.
Please help me
Thanks in advance

I try to run code but got an error. How to fix it?
SELECT Cast(('20140304800084500001') AS BIGINT)
Arithmetic overflow error converting expression to data type bigint
Following SQL statement attempts to convert a bigint to date
SELECT CAST (DATEADD(SECOND, SEM_AGENT.LAST_UPDATE_TIME /1000 + 8*60*60, '19700101') AS VARCHAR(50)) as Last_Checkin ........
But no matter what I try, the output is
May 27 2015 1:18AM
and I wish the output to be
May 27 2015
I also tried
SELECT CAST (DATEADD(SECOND, SEM_AGENT.LAST_UPDATE_TIME /1000 + 8*60*60, 'Jan 1, 1970') AS VARCHAR(50)) as Last_Checkin ....
but same result
I found this to work:
SELECT uri, evFieldUri, evFieldVal
, CAST(evFieldVal
AS BIGINT)
FROM TSEXFIELDV
[Code] ....
It Returns:
uri
evFieldUri
evFieldVal
(No column name)
224016 3267
+000089243829 89243829
224019 2717
+000089243825 89243825
224472 3333
+000000000000000000000017 17
225052 3267
+000089243829 89243829
225055 2717
+000089243825 89243825
So, then I went back to:
SELECT uri, evFieldUri, evFieldVal
, CAST(evFieldVal
AS BIGINT)
FROM TSEXFIELDV
[Code] ....
And it returns this error:
Msg 8114, Level 16, State 5, Line 1
Error converting data type varchar to bigint.
So, I tried again, and this worked…
SELECT uri, evFieldUri, evFieldVal,CAST(evFieldVal
AS BIGINT),
ISNUMERIC(evFieldVal)
FROM TSEXFIELDV WHERE URI
> 0 AND evFieldUri
IN ( SELECT URI
FROM TSEXFIELD WHERE exFieldFormat
IN (1,11))
I logged out and came back and tried again, and it still worked. So then I tried…
SELECT uri, evFieldUri, evFieldVal,CAST(evFieldVal
AS BIGINT)
FROM TSEXFIELDV
WHERE URI
> 0
[Code] ...
And it fails.
Hello guys,
Have any one tried to convert an image to a hexadecimal string, and saving it to sql server?
Thanks..
Hi!!!!!
I'm looking for a SQL FUnction that convert a decimal to Hexadecimal and
Hexadecimal to decimal data.
I know the way to convert for. But not with a SQL Function. certainly I
need to know How to express an Exponential Function.
Thank's.
Dear SQL folks,
We have files from an event log in a DEC Alpha server and we would like to create a database program to import these files and then be able to read and query the info in them.
These files contain information such as error codes about the machine that the Alpha controls. They also contain time stamps. I am told that these files are hexidecimal.
Someone mentioned in passing that if we use MSaccess as the database, we would first have to write a program to convert these files to a format that Access can understand.
But, we were told that SQL7 has Add-ins that comes on the CD that can convert these files to a format that SQL7 can then understand.
Does anyone know if this is true..and how difficult is file conversion to accomplish?
If anyone thinks that they might be able to help us, I can sent them a small sample of the hex files
Thank you in advance
Hi ,
I want to convert hexadecimal to numeric data type. Using directly Cast or Convert function is not working.
Please suggest an alternative how to retrieve the numeric value of binary data .
Thanks in advance

Dear Experts,Ok, I hate to ask such a seemingly dumb question, but I'vealready spent far too much time on this. More that Iwould care to admit.In Sql server, how do I simply change a character into a number??????In Oracle, it is:select to_number(20.55)from dualTO_NUMBER(20.55)----------------20.55And we are on with our lives.In sql server, using the Northwinds database:SELECTr.regionid,STR(r.regionid,7,2) as a_string,CONVERT(numeric, STR(r.regionid,7,2)) as a_number,cast ( STR(r.regionid) as int ) as cast_to_numberFROM REGION R1 1.00112 2.00223 3.00334 4.0044SELECTr.regionid,STR(r.regionid,7,2) as a_string,CONVERT(numeric, STR(r.regionid,7,2) ) as a_number,cast (STR(r.regionid,7,2) as numeric ) as cast_to_numberFROM REGION R1 1.00112 2.00223 3.00334 4.0044Str converts from number to string in one motion.Isn't there a simple function in Sql Server to convertfrom string to number?What is the secret?Thanks

This select qry runs for abt 20 mins, I think convert to bigint is causing the slowness. Underlying tbl has abt 50000 recs. Pl note that I am runnign this in SQL SERVER 2005, Where it takes abt 20 mins. However when I run this on SQL Server 2000, it takes only 4 mins.

We have a 3rd party application that connects to our SQL 2005 as a external database source.
Our external database has a 'datein' field that for some reason is stored as a varchar(50).
I can use cast to convert the field to datetime, but how would I then format to the yyyy-mm-dd format in the same select statement(using in view)?
I need to convert this field to a format of YYYY-MM-DD in order for the 3rd party application to search on it correctly.
Below is an example of the data --

Can anyone explain in simple terms the difference between cast and convert in SQL?
View 2 Replies View RelatedHi all,
I have a VB 6.0 application that interacts with an MS Access backend. I am in the process of converting it so that it interacts with SQL Server 2000. The current applications uses Cint, CStr, etc. functions which are MS-Access specific, so I am now switching over to Convert (or Cast) function. The problem is that there are certain places wherein I first need to store the value of the resultant CAST/Convert function in a variable and then use that value in a SQL statement. However, I cant seem to figure out a way of storing the results from CAST/CONVERT functions in the VB 6.0 variable. All the examples on Internet show use of these functions directly in an SQL statement e.g. "Select CAST(title as Int) from xyz", etc.
Can anybody tell me how can i get the values to be stored in the variable? I am really stuck here and cant seem to progress.
Thanks in advance for all your help.

I have a table with all varchar data for all different fields for money and int etc. I want to do a calcuation in one field with the rule as below:
UPDATE [dbo].[tblPayments]
SET [PreInjuryWage]=
CASE
WHEN [WeekNo]<14
THEN ([MaxWorkCover]+ [WeeklyEarnings] )/0.95
ELSE ([MaxWorkCover] + 0.80 * [WeeklyEarnings] ) /0.80
END
I tried this command after many other ways of tries
UPDATE [dbo].[tblPayments1]
SET [PreInjuryWage]=
CASE
WHEN [WeekNo]<14
THEN CAST ( (cast([MaxWorkCover] as money )+ cast([WeeklyEarnings] as money ))/0.95 AS Varchar(10) )
ELSE CAST ( (convert(money, [MaxWorkCover] + (0.80 * convert(money, [WeeklyEarnings] )) )/0.80 ) as varchar(10))
END
The structure of the table ( its a legacy table from 2000 i beleive)
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[tblPayments](
[PaymentID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[ClaimID] [int] NOT NULL,
[WeekNo] [smallint] NULL,
[code]....
Arithmetic overflow error converting numeric to data type varchar.
Can anyone tell me what is the difference between Cast and Convert...?
BOL tells me that they provide similar functionality; it doesn't say that they provide the same functionality.
What is the purpose of having both... is the reason historical?
Which one performs better?
ToMatch=58
ToNoMatch=1
select @Agg1= Cast(cast(cast(cast(Max(TotMatch) as decimal) / cast((Max(TotNoMatch) + Max(TotMatch)) as decimal)* 100 as int) - 100 as int) as varchar) + '%' FROM #Rpt;
if i try this it is giving me answer in -2%
how i can remove the - sign
also if I try the same statement in different way. well I am going to post in other post.

I have an INT field that I want to take the average value of, to the 2nd decimal. Is there a difference between using CAST vs CONVERT?
CAST
Code:
CAST(Avg(CAST(units AS DECIMAL(10,2))) AS DECIMAL(10,2))
from myTable
CONVERT
Code:
CONVERT(numeric(10,2),avg(CONVERT(numeric(10,2),units)))
from myTable
1)Cast(isnull(Partl,0) as smallint)
2) convert(varchar(12),newDate, 101)
what two lines would do. ??
thanks,
How do I use the CAST or CONVERT function in the code below, I require a third column (named Diff) which Minus the StartTime from the EndTime and the result is outputted in the third column (named Diff).
Calculation: @Diff = (@EndTime - @StartTime)
I still want the variables (@StartTime and @EndTime) to remain as nvarchar.
The code:
DECLARE @StartTime nvarchar(10) = '12:10';
DECLARE @EndTime nvarchar(10) = '12:30';
DECLARE @Diff time(1) = '00:00';
SELECT @StartTime AS '@StartTime', @EndTime AS '@EndTimes', @Diff AS '@Diff';

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

All of my currency columns are only storing 2 decimal places when I insert into the database but when I pull out the data with a SELECT statement, I always get 4 decimal places instead of the 2 that were inserted.
For example:
Database Price SELECT statement Price
100.56 100.5600
I have tried to use the CAST and/or CONVERT commands but I cannot get the output to come out as 100.56. Has anyone had a similar problem?
Thanks
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?
Using OnSelected on the SqlDataSource----here is my currect code:private void On_Load(Object sender, SqlDataSourceCommandEventArgs e){if (e.Command.Parameters["@DueDate"].Value = "NULL"){e.Command.Parameters["@DueDate"].Value = "0000-00-00 00:00:00.000";}}
I am trying to change the value from NULL(in a datetime field) to "0000-00-00 00:00:00.000" for use on the page.Any ideas, suggestions, or thoughts would be greatly appreciated!
