I get the following error when I do a CONVERT(UNIQUEIDENTIFIER, 'guid'), where 'guid' is a properly formatted GUID created in VS2005, inside my INSERT statement:
The data was truncated while converting from one data type to another. [ Name of function(if known) = ]
The column I am inserting into has a datatype of uniqueIdentifier.
This is probably a simple wuestion but i would appreciate some help I am trying to get and insert the userId into a table called "Orders" I got the user id as Dim CustomerId As Object = Membership.GetUser(User.Identity.Name).ProviderUserKey.ToString The button on click command is worldshop.ShoppingCart.CreateOrder(CustomerId,.........................

I am trying to store a unique identifier that is text into a field in a SQL DB that is type uniqueidentifier and I get the follow error message.
Conversion failed when converting from a character string to uniqueidentifier. My Code is shown below: comSQL.Parameters.AddWithValue("@PROPERTYID", Format(Request.QueryString("ID").ToString, "{0:########-####-####-####-############}")) This has worked before but isnt' anymore. Any ideas?
Hi,I'm new at asp .net and am having a problem. On a linkbutton click event, I want to insert into my db a row of data which includes two parameters. Param1 is the id of the logged in user, and Param2 is <%#DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, 'UserId')%> which is the username of a user given through a datalist.When I execute the query: "insert into aspnet_friendship (userId, buddyId) values (@Param1, @Param2)"I get the error: Conversion failed when converting from a character string to uniqueidentifier.I am trying to insert these into my table aspnet_friendship into the columns userId and buddyId which are both uniqueidentifier fields. I tested the query using the same values (@Param1, @Param1) and (@Param2, @Param2) and found out that the problem is with Param2 because when I use Param1 the insert works perfectly. The value passed by Param2 is supposed to be the id of a user which I get from the datalist which selects * from aspnet_Users, so that <%#DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, 'UserId')%> should also be an Id like Param1 is. Since both params are in the form of .toString(), I don't understand why one works but the other doesn't.As you can see in the code below, both of these parameters are dimmed as strings, so I don't understand why Param2 doesn't work. Can anyone please help?

Hi,We have stored proc name proc_test(str nvarchar(30)). So far this prochas been invoked from a .NET application assuming that only Englishcharacter strings will be passed to it. The calls are likeproc_test('XYZ')We now have a requirement for passing Chinese strings as well. Ratherthan changing the calls throughout the application, we would like tohandle it in the stored procedure so that it treats the string as aunicode string. Can we apply some function to the parameter to convertit to unicode so that we don't have to call with an N prefixed to thestring?Thanks,Yash
I have a fixed-width flat file that I'm importing to a SQL table in a data flow task. The first field is an ID field, of length 12, that I'm told I can assume is an INT datatype. Obviously, it's a little silly to shove an integer that can be a max of 10 digits into a 12 digit field... but that's my situation.
I set the columns on the flat file connection manager to be inputColumnWidth of 12, and datatype of DT_I4. When I try to run the package, I get the error (understandably): The data conversion for column "ID" returned status value 2 and status text "The value could not be converted because of a potential loss of data.".
What are my options here? I'm going to assume that even though the width is 12 characters, only an integer will appear in those spaces. I attempted to use a derived column and a type cast, but to no avail. Help would be appreciated... thanks!
Hi guys,I'm currently trying to insert image into my SQL db. I have tried a number of methods that were posted online, and so far with no luck.My current code reads: Dim conn As New Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection() conn.ConnectionString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("MainDBConnection").ToString conn.Open() Dim cmd As New Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand("SP_SAVEImage", conn) cmd.CommandType = Data.CommandType.StoredProcedure Dim sImageName As New Data.SqlClient.SqlParameter("@sImageName", Data.SqlDbType.VarChar, 50) sImageName.Value = sImageName Dim sImageType As New Data.SqlClient.SqlParameter("@sImageType", Data.SqlDbType.VarChar, 50) sImageType.Value = fileType Dim sImageData As New Data.SqlClient.SqlParameter("@sImageData", Data.SqlDbType.Image, uploadedFile.Length) sImageData.Value = uploadedFile cmd.Parameters.Add(sImageName) cmd.Parameters.Add(sImageType) cmd.Parameters.Add(sImageData) Dim reader1 As Data.SqlClient.SqlDataReader reader1 = cmd.ExecuteReaderRunning through debug, everything runs up until the last line, where an error is caught saying : Failed to convert parameter value from a SqlParameter to a String I reckon it's to do with the input sImageData being input as a byte array - but I can't seem to find a way around it. Any help greatly appreciated!!
I have been working on this all day and cannot find an answer I need to convert a string to an object, a string to object of type Command Is there anyway to do this? Thank you all in advance!!!!!!!
I am writing a stored procedure that generates a computername for new workstations. Our naming standards, based on terminal ID's, are as follows: 'R' + X + Y + ZZZ, where 'R' is the letter 'R', X is a hex digit indication a locatoin, Y is a hex digit indicating business line, and ZZZ is a hexadecimal sequential number assigned within each location/busines line, for up to 4096. (This isn't a perfect naming standard, but is an improvement over the one that preceded it and is a requirement for our legacy applications). I can do everything fine, and calculate the sequential number using an int. Once I have the new number, I am trying to convert the integer to a varbinary, then convert that to a string, then use RIGHT to get the rightmost three characters of the hex string. set @SEQNUM = 4095 set @HEXSEQNUM = CONVERT(varbinary ,@SEQNUM) PRINT CONVERT(varbinary ,@SEQNUM) -- displays 0x00000FFE etc. PRINT 'HEXSEQNUM ' + @HEXSEQNUM -- displays 'HEXSEQNUM'
Hello,I try to convert a pseudo datetime string into a date. In Oracle I can doto_date( MyDate, 'yyyymmddhh24miss' ); how I can do this with MS SQL ?thanks and regardsMark

I am trying to write a function to convert a hex string to binary. I would like it in a function so I can use it on aggregate data in queries (instead of having to cursor through the data). So, I write my function:
CREATE FUNCTION HexToBinary (@hexstring char(16)) RETURNS binary(8) AS BEGIN declare @b binary(8) ,@sql nvarchar(255)
SET @sql = N'SET @b = 0x' + @hexstring EXEC sp_executesql @sql,N'@b binary(8) out',@b output RETURN @b END
Then, I try to call my function:
SELECT HexToBinary('E0')
...and I get:
Msg 195, Level 15, State 10, Line 1 'HexToBinary' is not a recognized built-in function name.
However, I can get it to work if I use a slightly different syntax:
declare @b binary(8) exec @b = HexToBinary 'E0' select @bAny thoughts as to what might be going on? Obviously, the lower syntax does not help me call this function in queries, which is really my goal.

Hi Gurus, Here is my problem-: I have a field in the SQL 2005 database with type varbinary(50). Now when i enter value to this field, I enter a value for example 111111101. The reason to enter such a value in varbinary(50) type is, that this value is meant to grow, as each 1 and 0 in this value is a permission or right my user would have to various features of the web application, I am designing. Now when I open the table to see the data in the database, it shows as <Binary data>. But that's okay, as binary fields are mostly meant to store pictures, files etc. But when I read this value into my ASP.Net code using c#, the value as returned as 069F6BBD. After some research I realized that for decimal value 111111101, the hex value is 069F6BBD. All I need in my code is the same thing that I entered which is 111111101. Can someone guide me a lil bit. Thanks in advance.. VJ
I have a dropdown list thats boudn to a SqlDataSource. The DataSource looks like this: <asp:SqlDataSource ID="dsProgramList" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:csData %>" SelectCommand="SELECT DISTINCT [Program_Name] +','+ [Begin_Date] AS NAMEandDATE, [Course_ID], [LOC] FROM [ThisTable] WHERE ([LOC] = @LOC)"> <SelectParameters>
Where the dropdownlists text = NAMEandDATE and its value = Course_ID When I select the LOC from the LOCdropdownlist, the dropdownlist in question updates, and an error "Erro converting datetime from character string" happens? Any suggestions?

So, i am building a string using datepart and then adding the time at the end. The 120 after the final comma is to define the style (as i am sure you will all know anyway).
When i run this i get the following error:
Msg 245, Level 16, State 1, Line 35 Syntax error converting the varchar value ' 16:30:00' to a column of data type int.
If i take out the colons it runs but brings back the wrong date, the whole date seems to be dependant on the time part at the end.
I am sure this is a really simple problem and i am sorry if i am wasting you time but its late and i just cant see it. Any help would be fantastic.
Can anyone tell me what this error message means and how I can correct it on my statement: Code:
Server: Msg 241, Level 16, State 1, Line 1Syntax error converting datetime from character string.
Here's my query statement: Code:
SELECT animalid AS "Animal ID", name AS "Name", categoryid AS "Category ID", DATENAME(MONTH, dateBorn) + ' ' + DATENAME(DAY, dateBorn) + ', ' + DATENAME(YEAR, dateBorn) AS "Date of Birth"FROM animalWHERE categoryid = 'Cat' AND dateBorn = 'May%'
I know it has something to do with: dateBorn = 'May%' because when I took out Quote: AND dateBorn = 'May%' I get results, but I need to narrow it down to list the cats born in May.
I'm looking for some good hints and tips for reprogrammin an old VB module I just found.
Basically what it does, is receive an input parameter (an int), does a select [name row] from Names where Name_id = [input parameter] and turns this into a string if multiplenames appear.
E.g. result set: John, Josh, Jock turns it into string "John Josh Jock".
So its piece of cake creating a stored procedure selecting data on the base of an input parameter. Select X from Y where Z = @input... the trick is, I don't know how to do arrays in TSQL as in VB.
In the VB edition I create an array, load the names into it, I do a count on how many row the select returns and then a simple for... next adding the names to the string.
Any good examples on how to do this in a sql-server stored proc?
Thanks,
Trin
P.S. This is what I have pieced together this far:
DECLARE medlemcursor CURSOR FOR SELECT [MCPS Kode] FROM DW.dbo.names(NOLOCK) WHERE number = @number
OPEN medlemcursor
FETCH NEXT FROM medlemcursor INTO @tempinstt WHILE (@@FETCH_STATUS <> -1) BEGIN SET @instrument = @instrument + @tempinstt + '-' FETCH NEXT FROM medlemcursor INTO @tempinstt END
CLOSE medlemcursor DEALLOCATE medlemcursor
SELECT @instrument GO
Just doesn't seem to work, returns NULL, even though I've checked that the cursor SELECT statement actually returns data,
declare @a money set @a=1.2365 print cast(@a as varchar(10))
when i run the code in the query analizer , the output will be rounded and always will be displayed with two decimal digits(=1.24)...why? how can i move the whole number value as an string value to an string variable without this truncation?
I am trying to import a txt file that has a string for it's date. How do I change it over in the import wizard I've tried going to advance then changing from string to date or date time but I get an error.
I am very new to SSIS though I have written hundreds of SQL 2000 dts' with all kinds of active scripts doing all kinds of things. I am now trying to convert them to SSIS and since scripts don't come through the migrator I am doing them by hand once again. I have the package created, but one of the input fields on the text file is YYYYMMDD , but the database field it is going into is a datetime so I need to convert it to a valid date format so that the conversion will take place. I tried data conversion task but that doesn't work, now I'm assuming I need to use the derived column, but not sure and don't have a clue how to use that, can anyone help? Thanks bostonrose
I am trying to select all members from a SQL db who have a renewal date btw to dates inputted into two text fields, but I am now getting the error above. This is where the problem is coming in...
If strStartDate <> "" and strEndDate <> "" Then If bParam = True Then StrSQL = strSQL & " AND " Else StrSQL = strSQL & " WHERE deleted=0 AND " End If strSQL = strSQL & "renewal_due BETWEEN '%" & Replace(strStartDate,"'","''") & "%' AND '%" & Replace(strEndDate,"'","''") & "%' " End If
New to the forums here. I'm not a beginner with SQL, but nor am I a SQL developer - network engineer who knows some scripting and the fundamentals of DB design/administration. There's the background.
I have a database of client information where a date is keyed in and stored as text. Because this is entered by end-users, the way it's entered varies - 1/1/2001, 01/01/2001, etc. Most use "1/1/2001" (note the date is not the same for each record)
I have 4,000 records to update and I need to try to convert the text string to the correct date - changing 1/1/2005 to the same date in proper date/time format. My database uses datetime as an integer calculating the number of days from 12/30/1800. Today's date would be 75508. Time is separated into different fields.
I can do the work to update the text to a single format to make the conversion easier, but I am having trouble locating the proper way to write a convert function to do this. I've searched online (which is how I came here) and have searched the forums without luck.
