HI ALL,
declere @d varchar(10)
declare @t varchar(10)
set @d=convert(varchar,'7/25/2007 10:10:53',101)
set @d=convert(varchar,'7/25/2007 10:10:53',108)
it returns as
@d=7/25/2007
@t=7/25/2007
but @t should be equal to 10:10:53
what's wrong in the conversions

Hi All, I struck by a issue, In a table(tblMemberPayments) i had two columns one is to hold (month) as CHAR and other one is to hold (year) as INT. Now i need to implement search for this table based on the dates given , I mean i need to get the records from this table in between any two dates given by the user (Eg : feb 2007 to feb 2008). While retriving i am unable to type cast the things as required for the above case. I am getting an error unable to convert varchar to datetime while using CONVERT FUNCTION the same thing a raises while using DATEDIFF FUNCTION .help me if any one knows the solution . here are the couple of ways i tried 1) 'CONVERT(varchar(10),(tblMemberPayments.ExpirationMonth + tblMemberPayments.Expirationyear),1) between CONVERT(varchar(10),''feb 2007'',1) AND CONVERT(varchar(10),''feb 2008'',1)' Msg 245, Level 16, State 1, Line 1Conversion failed when converting the varchar value 'Apr' to data type int. 2)'datediff(m,Cast(tblMemberPayments.ExpirationMonth + tblMemberPayments.ExpirationMonthint as datetime), ''Feb 2008'') >= 0 and datediff(m, cast(tblMemberPayments.ExpirationMonth + tblMemberPayments.ExpirationMonthint as datetime), ''Feb 2007'') <= 0' Thanks & Regards, Sudheer.Y

View 2 Replies View RelatedHaving some trouble converting strings to dates. I am using a .dtsx package and have figured out how to use a derived column to convert the string to a new string which is a valid date. The problem is now converting the column data type to date. I insert a new data conversion step to convert the vchar field to date, then when it runs it fails on this step. Error is
The conversion returned status value 2 and status text "The value could
not be converted because of a potential loss of data."
If I leave out the data conversion step and run the package, then manually change the data type to date it warns with the same message, but if I accept it converts correctly.
Here is my derived column code
REPLACE(SUBSTRING([Data Conversion 1].START_OF_EXECUTION,1,10) + " " +
RIGHT([Data Conversion 1].START_OF_EXECUTION,8),".",":")
Please Help
It was my understanding earlier that -- it is mandatory to have a Derived Column for a DATE String in a Flat File
to be loaded properly into a table with "datetime" column type
However, i tried running my package with the Input Column as "DT_STR" and the Destination on the table is DATETIME.
Looks like the process went on fine.. Am i missing something here?
My Date Format from the source looks like -- "DD-MON-YY"

Hi
I am quite new to SSIS and have been given the task of importing some data from a text file into the database. The data contains dates which are in the American format of mm/dd/yyyy. I need them in the datadase in the format of dd mon yy.
I realise I could load it and do a SQL task to convert once it is in the database but ideally i would like this data transformed before it is loaded into the tables.
any suggestions will be gratefully recieved.
Best regards
In my DB I have strings which are all 8 characters long and all pass the isDate == 1 thing so everything row can be converted into a date.
When I run a select convert(datetime, value) it gives me an error saying that it's unable to convert datetime from string. However when I insert everything into a temp table and run each row individually, it converts fine.
Any ideas as to what I'm doing wrong? I've checked the date settings on SQL 2005 SP2 and the host itself and everything seems correct. I've been stuck on this all day and any help is very much appreciated.
I have this query where I do certain conversions and on top of this how can I sum the column values.
'$ '+ Replace(CONVERT(varchar,CAST(Total_Amount AS money),1) ,'.00','') as Total_Amount,
'$ '+ Replace(CONVERT(varchar,CAST(Monthly_Amount As money),1),'.00','') as Monthly_Amount,
What are the pros/cons of datatype conversions using the advanced properties of the source adapters or transformation components themselves vs. using the data conversion transformation? Sometimes I am able to do all the conversions I need using the advanced properties rather than use a data conversion component, but didn't know if this was considered bad practice, or has some other impact that isn't immediately apparent.
Thanks

Hi all,I have a DataRow that I'm attempting to insert into SQL. The row has an item I"ll refer to as row["AbsorbtionDeficiency"]. I'm filling this data row from a ODBC connection to a propriatary database. Now I want to insert this data into SQL where the same row data type is "money".I'm not to familiar with the different data types, but the long and short of it is this. When I build my SQL Insert statement, sometimes this value is blank, sometimes it's 0, and sometimes it will have a dollar amount(no formating just the numeric). How to I get this data out of the row in a format that SQL understands... Since I'm creating a SQL string the datatype of the row I assume doesn't matter, so I"m doing a .ToString() when I build the statement.Do I need to do a CAST('0' AS MONEY) to each line that is money type? Or is there an easier way?I would insert the code, but it's a pretty masive statement and I don't think it's really needed yet.ThanksJosh
View 1 Replies View RelatedI can't get sp_executesql to accept more than 10 converted parameters in one execution. A stored procedure loops through a table variable that presents up to 100 parameters and their named data types. I've tried selecting into sql_variant and nvarchar variables and converting them to the named data type in the loop.
sp_executesql is outside the loop.
For the first 10 parameters sp_executesql recognizes the data type conversions of the variables that hold the parameter values, but then it fails to accept the conversions of the 11th and subsequent variables. Is there a limit to the number of conversions that sp_executesql can cope with?

I have multiple columns in a table that I only want to convert if they are not null or of the proper type. I don't really want to redirect the whole row if one of the conversions fails, rather I would just not want to do the cast or set it to another value. In this scenario is it better to use a custom script or multiple tasks? The multiple tasks seems like a lot of overhead for processing the same data. Just curious how others handle this scenario as it seems as though it has come up quite often on our current project? Thanks for the assistance.

I'm importing a csv file into sql server and everything is working fine however here are my problems.
The csv file fields contain some money fields and even though my db column type is money the dts package console complains that my data type from the csv is of type string 'for the money value' and cannot be inserted into the db field because they don't match. I changed the db field to nvarchar and hey presto it works fine. Problem is that this is no good because the data in the db is no longer a money value and therefore I cannot query the way I should.
So basically how do i map my csv to pass its values as the right types instead of just string values. If this was in c# i could just assign the parameter types accordingly but I'm not sure how to with sqlservers dts package.
Any help!!!!!
Recently I decided to start using DotNetNuke, which uses an SQL Server database. My webhoster offers SQL Server 2000, and I was able to install and run DNN successfully there. However, I wish to have a local copy of DNN on my PC with the same contents as is on the web. It means that I need either to convert SQL Server 2000 database to my local SQL Server 2005 Express database, or vice versa.
Although I programmed in (Visual) FoxPro for many years, I am new to SQL Server and I am overwhelmed by the vast number of new terms. Can anyone tell me in simple English, how to perform the above mentioned conversions? My webhoster allows me to backup the SQL Server 2000 database in an *.sql file, but how shall I convert this file into an SQL Server 2005 Express *.mdf file?
Am getting ready to perform upgrade/migrate from 2000 to 2005 and have concerns about all the usernames/passwords converting accurately, as the existing 2000 instance has hundreds of them (am used to conversions with few usernames/passwords). Any suggestions as to the best way to proceed. The upgrade/migration is being done on the same box. Will a straight upgrade convert the master db cleanly with u/p, what issues does a migration on the same box present? Thanks.
I'm trying to write some code that will alter column to change its type, in this case from Nvarchar to Int, but I'm not sure if there will be any columns that are uncovertable (say, there's a string that does not have an Int value). In this case, I'd like it to default to 0. Is there a way to write a T-SQL statement to do this, or will I have to write an UPDATE stamement first to clear out any problem cases?

My goal is to select values from the same date range for a month on month view to compare values month over month. I've tried using the date trunc function but I'm not sure what the best way to attack this is. My thoughts are I need to somehow select first day of every month + interval 'x days' (but I don't know the syntax).In other words, I want to see

I am trying to find a beginning date from multiple date ranges, for example:

208203492013-09-032014-09-01
308203492012-09-042013-09-02
408203492011-12-122012-07-03--not a continuous date range
For this id: 0793319, my beginning date is 2012-09-04
108203492014-09-022015-06-30
For this id: 0820349, my beginning date is 2014-09-02
To find continuous date, you look at the beginning date in row 1 and end date in row 2, then if no break in dates, row 2 beginning date to row 3 end date, if no break continue until last date There could multiple dates up to 12 which I have to check for "no break" in dates, if break, display beginning date of last continuous date.
I want to compare two columns in the same table called start date and end date for one clientId.if clientId is having continuous refenceid and sartdate and enddate of reference that I don't need any caseopendate but if clientID has new reference id and it's start date is not continuous to its previous reference id then I need to set that start date as caseopendate.

Hi,
Basically the above is a very common requirement, please comment on my solution which I've arrived at by searching through the web; -
In summary I have used 3 SSIS components these are "Flat File Source", "Derived Column" and "SQL Server Destination".
1) File Connections Manager Editor
1.1) Within File Connections Manager Editor; -
Name the data type e.g. "INTERCHANGE_NET_APP_DATE_SRC"
and assign a type to the data type e.g. string[DT_STR]
1.2) Click on the Preview button to ensure the expected text is assigned to the expected data type.
2) Derived Column Transformation Editor
2.1) Assign Derived Column Name, e.g.
INTERCHANGE_NET_APP_DATE
2.2) Select <add as new column> within Derived Column.
2.3) Enter the conversion Expression, e.g. ; -
2.3.1)
(SUBSTRING(INTERCHANGE_NET_APP_DATE_SRC,8,2) + "/" + SUBSTRING(INTERCHANGE_NET_APP_DATE_SRC,5,2) + "/" + SUBSTRING(INTERCHANGE_NET_APP_DATE_SRC,1,4))
2.3.2)
Since the above conversion is such a common task I suggest that Service Pack 3 of SQL Server 2005 delivers the following functionality; -
STRINGTODATE ('YYYYMMDD',INTERCHANGE_NET_APP_DATE_SRC)
2.4) Select "database timestamp [DT_DBTIMESTAMP] " as Data Type.
2.5) Within the Mappings tab of the SQL Destination Editor have; -
Input Column as INTERCHANGE_NET_APP_DATE and
Destination Column as INTERCHANGE_NET_APP_DATE.
Please comment on the above, I will then pass on my suggestion to Microsoft.
Thanks in advance,
Kieran.
Hi there.
I'm trying to extract data from my SQL server & everything in the script I've got is working (extracting correct data) except for one field - which is for the most part it's off by +2 days (on a few occasions - I see it off by just +1 day or even +3, but it's usually the +2 days).
I'm told that it's due to the conversion formula - but - since SQL is not my native language, I'm at a bit of a loss.
The DB table has the date field stored as a type: CHAR (as opposed to 'DATE')
Can anyone out there help?
Please advise. Thanks.
Best.
