Converting (too Big)Raw Into Hex

May 25, 2007

Hi there,

Here at my work(in Germany) i have a big problem:

Once a week there is a sqlscript, which should run and store data to a txt file.

There is a tablle in which imagedata is stored in RAW format(that one with small boxes, Qmarks and dots...).

Now i want to export it to the txtfile as HEX, so i can decode it by php further.

With the thumbnail, also stores there everything is fine, the SQL looks that way:

SELECt hex(thumbnail) FROM picTable where id_pic=54985

The Data is then displayed as HEX. But the standart picture is to big. When i use the statement:
SELECt hex(bigpic) FROM picTable where id_pic=54985

i got the error message:

An error occurred while running the query.

The data type, length, or value of argument 1 of HEX is invalid.

(SQL code = -171, SQL state = 42815)

After some research i found that the maximum lenght is 16 336 bytes for the HEX-operation. The picture is nearly 30 000 bytes... :shocked:
Have anyone an idea how to fix that?
I am not able here to accsess to the database direct...

I have been working for days on it.

I have an anonymous PL/SQL block that I'd like to Convert into T-Sql and im completly stumped on 2 things:

What is the equvilent of a Cursor and how do I declare one?
How do I declare an anonymous block?

Converting A SP To UDF

May 22, 2007

Hi All,
I am in the process of changing the cursor based Proc with temp tables, I have one of the Procs which is beening used to get a value for the cursor, I am thinking if it is possible to change it to a function so that I can update the column at once.

[code]
CREATE PROCEDURE[dbo].[get_cre_tijd_id] (
@tijd_datum datetime,
@tijd_id int output
)
AS

DECLARE @datum_tekst VARCHAR(25)
DECALRE @datum_tijd DATETIME

SET @datum_tekst = CAST(@tijd_datum AS VARCHAR);
SET @datum_tijd = CONVERT(DATETIME, SUBTRING(@datum_tekst, 1, 12), 21 )
SET @tijd_id = (SELECT tijd_id FROM dim_tijd WHERE tijd_datum = @datum_tijd )

IF @tijd_id IS NULL
BEGIN
INSERT INTO dim_tijd (
tijd_datum
, jaar
, kwartaal
, maand
, dag
, periode
, week
, weekdag
)
VALUES ( @datum_tijd
, datepart(yy,@tijd_datum)
, datepart(q,@tijd_datum)
, datepart(m,@tijd_datum)
, datepart(d,@tijd_datum)
, ceiling(datepart(wk,@tijd_datum)/4.00)
,dbo.get_iso_week(@tijd_datum)
, datepart(dw,@tijd_datum)
)

SET @tijd_id = (SELECT tijd_id FROM dim_tijd WHERE tijd_datum = @datum_tijd)
END

Necessity is the mother of all inventions!

Converting From Dd.hh:mm:ss

Sep 26, 2007

Hello all,

I am subtracting two datetimes (last(fields!FaultStart.value))-(first(fields!FaultStart.value)) this works fine and returns a value in a textbox 5.23:44:23. I need to convert that number to minutes I am very new to sql programming and do not know very many commands. I am using Microsoft sql server 2005 express edition along with sql server business intelligence development studio where I placed a textbox and entered the expression above. I have also tried to use datediff command
=datediff(second, (last(fields!FaultStart.value)),(first(fields!FaultStart.value)))
but the second is underlined and tooltips says WRONG NUMBER OF ARGUMENTS I��ve tried
=datediff(��second�?, (last(fields!FaultStart.value)),(first(fields!FaultStart.value)))
and
=datediff(��second��?, (last(fields!FaultStart.value)),(first(fields!FaultStart.value)))
also for second I��ve tried seconds. Any help would be most appreciated

Thanks

Converting To UTC

Nov 8, 2007

I haven't seen a really good solution for this in amongst the threads about UTC. What I want to do is convert a date time to UTC, taking into account whether or not it is in DST, and be able to deploy this code to any server in the world without customizing the SQL code, and have it know how to convert, as long as a I feed it the local Time Zone.

I would think this would be easy because the OS knows at any given time what time zone has what UTC offset, and exactly at what time DST starts and ends. Right now I do this, but it is limited. I have a table that, for each site (there can be more than one site in different time zones) stores the UTC offset and whether or not the site observes DST. New York would have the "Observes_DST" set to 1, Phoenix would have it set to zero. The "Hours_To_UTC" value would be 5 for New York.

This code below assumes all sites are located in Canada or the US, as Canada and the US now use the second Sunday in March and first Sunday in November as the switch over times. (although this would work fine for countries like India and China that don't observe DST).

UPDATE a

SET Time_Arrived_UTC =

CASE

WHEN b.Observes_DST = 1 THEN

CASE

WHEN Month(Time_Arrived) IN (4,5,6,7,8,9,10) THEN

DATEADD(hh,b.Hours_From_UTC - 1,Time_Arrived)

WHEN Month(Time_Arrived) = 3 AND Day(Time_Arrived)- DATEPART(dw,Time_Arrived) >= 7 AND

Day(Time_Arrived) <= 14 AND DATEPART(dw,Time_Arrived) <> 1

then DATEADD(hh,b.Hours_From_UTC - 1,Time_Arrived)

WHEN Month(Time_Arrived) = 3 AND Day(Time_Arrived) > 14

then DATEADD(hh,b.Hours_From_UTC - 1,Time_Arrived)

WHEN Month(Time_Arrived) = 3 AND Day(Time_Arrived) >= 8 AND Day(Time_Arrived) <= 14 AND

DATEPART(dw,Time_Arrived) = 1 AND DATEPART(hh,Time_Arrived) >= 2

THEN DATEADD(hh,b.Hours_From_UTC - 1,Time_Arrived)

WHEN Month(Time_Arrived) = 11 AND Day(Time_Arrived) <= 7 AND DATEPART(dw,Time_Arrived) = 1 AND

DATEPART(hh,Time_Arrived) < 2 then DATEADD(hh,b.Hours_From_UTC - 1,Time_Arrived)

WHEN Month(Time_Arrived) = 11 AND Day(Time_Arrived)- DATEPART(dw,Time_Arrived) < 0 then

DATEADD(hh,b.Hours_From_UTC - 1,Time_Arrived)

ELSE DATEADD(hh,b.Hours_From_UTC,Time_Arrived)

END

ELSE DATEADD(hh,b.Hours_From_UTC,Time_Arrived)

END FROM

Facts_Table a INNER JOIN Site_Info_Lookup_Table b

ON a.Site_Name= b.Site_Name

This works, (and is much more efficient than using a UTC lookup table) and I could probably go about hard coding various other start and end DST datetimes for other time zone DST (Australia and Europe, for example), but that wouldn't be dynamic in case one country makes a change in policy that changes when DST starts and stops, like the US just did.

SQL Server only provides current time UTC conversion--I would think it should have a function like this:

ConvertToUTC(datetimevalue,timezone)

Oracle has a function like that, but it is useless because it doesn't take into account DST, it would for instance just add 5 hours to EST for every date you entered (now that's helpuful!). It is baffling that this function doesn't exist.

I am using Integration Services so I could probably build a script task that would query the OS for DST start and stop times given a particular time zone (if available), but I'm not much of a coder--would be nice to have an easy way to do it in Transact-SQL.

Thanks,

Kayda

Converting DateTime

Oct 14, 2004

Hello Everyone and thanks for your help in advance. I have an application that inserts a variety of values into a SQL Server database. Among the columns are three DateTime values. I have code working properly on my test server, but when I port the identical code to my production database, I get the following error:

Arithmetic overflow error converting expression to data type datetime. The statement has been terminated

When I remove any type of insert involving date, the application works. I have tried the date in various formats, for instance "09/12/2001" and "20010912", but still get the same error. Obviously, there must be differences in the SQL Servers, but I have never run into this problem before and the current server is running many applications involving dates. I haven't got a clue as to how to solve this problem. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Converting Boolean To Bit

Mar 2, 2005

I have a control with checkboxes. The checkbox.checked property returns a boolean value. If I want to insert a record into a table that has a corresponding column of type bit, how do I do it?

I triedCType(myChkBox.checked,String), which returns the strings "True" or "False". But, I get the errorThe name 'True' is not permitted in this context. Only constants, expressions, or variables allowed here. Column names are not permitted.I then tried "CAST(" & CType(myChkBox.checked,String) & ",bit)", but got the same error.

I can write a function that will return a 1 or a 0 but that seems ludicrous. Surely there must be a more elegant way to use the result of a checkbox in an SQL statement.

Thanks

Selecting * WHILE Converting

Jun 2, 2005

I have a tbale with maybe 30 columns and I'm selecting all where a
record number matches a parameter I've passed. That works fine,
however is there any way to do some conversions to fields when
selecting without having to list out each column? For instance
this is what it looks like now:

SELECT *
FROM Losses
WHERE @AppRecord = AppRecord
ORDER BY Record ASC

But I want to convert say one column, is there a way to keep similar syntax instead of listing out each column?

SELECT *, CONVERT(varchar(15), [Losses]) as [Losses]
FROM Losses
WHERE @AppRecord = AppRecord
ORDER BY Record ASC

And the column I'm converting is of type 'money'. I'm converting
it to get rid of the extra zeroes at the end. If you know a
better way to do it I'd be interested in knowing.

Converting From Oracle.

I recently got a new job at a new company. My previous experience
had all been with Oracle DB's but the new place uses Sql Server
2k. I have a few general questions about how to do stuff in
SqlServer...

1) how do I create a sequence and a trigger?
2) I know SqlServer probably doesnt have anything like Packages, so are
procedures local to schemas? and if so, are schema's nestable in any
way?
3) Can anyone reccomend a good book on T-SQL?

Converting 1000 Into 10.00

Oct 17, 2005

I have been given a Product table whoes all column types are varchar(8000)
One of the column is Price and other is DecimalPosition. Price column includes price without any decimal place and the data in DecimlaPosition column determins where the decimal should be placed.
So for instance, if the Price column includes '1000' and DecimalPosision includes '2' >> then it means that the actual price for this product is '10.00' and NOT '1000'. Similarly, if the DecimalPosision includes '3' >> then it means that the actual price for this product is '1.000' and NOT '1000'My question is that when I am getting the price for a product from this table, how can I get the price in the correct format, e..g like '10.00' and not '1000'Should I use SQL statements to convert 1000 into 10.00 or should I use some sort of programming logic to convert 1000 into 10.00.kind regards

Converting Databases From 6.5 To 7.0

I want to upgrade my 6.5 SQL Server to version 7, but it looks like I don't have enough disk space.
I installed version 7.0 and launched the SQL Server Upgrade Wizard in hopes of converting my databases (objects and data)
from 6.5 to 7.0. Instead, the wizard wants to make *copies* of my databases in the 7.0 instance. These databases are large
and I don't have enough room for a second copy of each database. Is there no way to *convert* the existing .dat files from 6.5
to 7.0 format? I want to avoid doubling the disk capacity of my server.

Converting Datatypes

Jun 9, 2000

Two datatype problems: (1) Datetime conversion (2) Foreign Currency format.

The first problem is that I am trying to convert source data from varchar to datetime. The source data is in CSV format and is displayed as follows - '1111999052349' to represent 1-Nov-1999 05:23:49. Have converted to a numeric value and then tried to convert to datetime but this just returns the following message 'Server: Msg 8115, Level 16, State 2, Line 3
Arithmetic overflow error converting expression to data type datetime.' However you can convert to a timestamp but the value returned is not meaningful (e.g. 0x0E0000013DFA4EE8).

Problem 2 concerns the French currency. The source data is in CSV format and is displayed as follows - '00000001,9700' to represent Fr1.97. Need to convert this to a numeric field or alternatively get SQL 7 to recognise it as a money field.

Any suggestions would be musch appreciated.

Many Thanks.

Converting Decimal To Hex

Dec 17, 2004

Currently writing a script to duplicate information in a database for a client. They have setup a userdefined table in our software that contains information that needs to go into the duplicate records. One particular column in this user defined table contains a decimal number in the 45mill range. The column that number is going into is an nVarchar column that requires a Hex value for our software.

Long story short (too late) I have been unable to find a system stored procedure that will convert the Decimal value into a Hexadecimal string.

Questions:
Is there one I just haven't found?

Anyone know of one already written by someone in the Community?

Or stop wasting time looking because there isn't one so I better hurry up and get one written and tested before my project is due?

Converting From Oracle

Jan 23, 2008

I am porting some application from AIX/C/Oracle to Windows/C#2005/MS SQL 2000. I have one query which has been giving me problems in translation from Oracle to MS SQL. This query had some decode statements which I changed to CASE statements. It also has Oracle (+) join operator, from what I have found this translates into an *= or =* depending which side the (+) is on.

Here is the query before replacing (+)

SELECT CSUM_TERR_CODE,
INVM_COST_FLAG,
SUM((CASE CITM_PROPRD WHEN '200708' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) * (CITM_QTY * CITM_PRICE)),
SUM(CITM_QTY * CITM_PRICE)
FROM ACC_CUST_SUM, ACC_CUST_ITEMS, ACC_INV_MSTR
WHERE CSUM_PROPRD BETWEEN '200701' AND '200708' AND
CSUM_COMP_CODE = 'A' AND
CSUM_EMPL_CODE = '85' AND
CSUM_PROPRD = CITM_PROPRD AND
CSUM_INV_SEQ = CITM_INV_SEQ AND
CITM_DEPT_CODE NOT IN ('TR', 'DTR') AND
CITM_COMP_CODE = INVM_COMP_CODE(+) AND
CITM_ITEM_CODE = INVM_ITEM_CODE(+) AND
INVM_COST_FLAG = 'C'
GROUP BY CSUM_TERR_CODE, INVM_COST_FLAG
UNION
SELECT CSUM_TERR_CODE,
(CASE INVM_COST_FLAG WHEN NULL THEN 'A'ELSE INVM_COST_FLAG END),
SUM((CASE CITM_PROPRD WHEN '200708' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) * (CITM_QTY * CITM_PRICE)),
SUM(CITM_QTY * CITM_PRICE)
FROM ACC_CUST_SUM, ACC_CUST_ITEMS, ACC_INV_MSTR
WHERE CSUM_PROPRD BETWEEN '200701' AND '200708' AND
CSUM_COMP_CODE = 'A' AND
CSUM_EMPL_CODE = '85' AND
CSUM_PROPRD = CITM_PROPRD AND
CSUM_INV_SEQ = CITM_INV_SEQ AND
CITM_DEPT_CODE NOT IN ('TR', 'DTR') AND
CITM_COMP_CODE = INVM_COMP_CODE(+) AND
CITM_ITEM_CODE = INVM_ITEM_CODE(+) AND
(INVM_COST_FLAG = 'A' OR INVM_COST_FLAG IS NULL)
GROUP BY CSUM_TERR_CODE, INVM_COST_FLAG

and after replacing with *, I think I have them in the right place

SELECT CSUM_TERR_CODE,
INVM_COST_FLAG,
SUM((CASE CITM_PROPRD WHEN '200708' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) * (CITM_QTY * CITM_PRICE)),
SUM(CITM_QTY * CITM_PRICE)

CSUM_EMPL_CODE = '85' AND
CSUM_PROPRD = CITM_PROPRD AND
CSUM_INV_SEQ = CITM_INV_SEQ AND
CITM_DEPT_CODE NOT IN ('TR', 'DTR') AND
CITM_COMP_CODE =* INVM_COMP_CODE AND
CITM_ITEM_CODE =* INVM_ITEM_CODE AND
INVM_COST_FLAG = 'C'
GROUP BY CSUM_TERR_CODE, INVM_COST_FLAG
UNION
SELECT CSUM_TERR_CODE,
(CASE INVM_COST_FLAG WHEN NULL THEN 'A'ELSE INVM_COST_FLAG END),
SUM((CASE CITM_PROPRD WHEN '200708' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) * (CITM_QTY * CITM_PRICE)),

FROM ACC_CUST_SUM, ACC_CUST_ITEMS, ACC_INV_MSTR
WHERE CSUM_PROPRD BETWEEN '200701' AND '200708' AND
CSUM_COMP_CODE = 'A' AND
CSUM_EMPL_CODE = '85' AND
CSUM_PROPRD = CITM_PROPRD AND

CITM_COMP_CODE =* INVM_COMP_CODE AND
CITM_ITEM_CODE =* INVM_ITEM_CODE AND
(INVM_COST_FLAG = 'A' OR INVM_COST_FLAG IS NULL)
GROUP BY CSUM_TERR_CODE, INVM_COST_FLAG

The Oracle run fine, but when run on MS SQL I get the following error.
The table 'ACC_CUST_ITEMS' is an inner member of an outer-join clause. This is not allowed if the table also participates in a regular join clause.

Any ideas on how I can get this one working?

Converting Nvarchar To Int

I want to convert this to a int so I can make it a AutoNumber primary key so I can increment it. Is this possible? If so, how do I do it. Do I need to delete the dashes first some how?

Converting To SQL Server

Jul 26, 2004

So where I work is thinking about one day moving to SQL server. Right now they have indexed files that aren't normalized with repeating fields in them and lots of repeat data and blank space (so a customer number in one file may be stored literally in 10 other files that are easily realted). In the intrest of saving time and money I think that they will not normalize, index, or anything to any of these files. From what I hear it will be a straight field by field creation for the most part and preserving the primary keys.

My question: I keep thinking this is going to be massive hit on performance and maintaince. How much would converting in such a manner hurt the performance of their database and how much could it potentially add to maintaince?

I'm converting a query from Access to SQL Server.

In this query I select from a column that contains numbers, the result I want is a varchar that is always 2 chars wide..

Ie:
7 should be selected as '07'
12 should be selected as '12'

In the Access-query it's rather nicely done with:
Format(Str(mycolumn),"00")

I could not find a way to make CONVERT do the same job... but I found that:
LEFT('00',2-LEN(CAST(mycolumn as varchar)))+CAST(mycolumn as varchar)
will do the job.

But it feels like it could be done nicer.. any suggestions?
