I am trying to insert data from a web form to a SQL Database. I am receiving the following error: {"String was not recognized as a valid Boolean."} I am also receiving a similar error for text boxes that have dates.
selectcommand="SELECT LoanRepName,Branch,CurrentDate,ReqDueDate,ProofByEmail,ProofByEmail,FaxNumber,ProjectExplanation,PrintQuantity,PDFDisc,PDFEmail,LoanRepEmail FROM MktProjReq"
Hi, Ive imported a data set into SQL. Now on redefining a text field to datetime, most dates that are filled come through okay.
The issue is that there are some empty fields which I'd like for it to stay empty after conversion. Now what happens is that the empty field becomes '01/01/1900' - which is throwing off our queries as we need it to be compared to other date fields.
Is there a way to keep it empty even after the datatype is changed to datetime? Thanks a bunch!
Conversion failed when converting datetime from character string. I am getting this error while inserting values in the DB from my application. I have done insertion before too , but i never receive this strange error but when I insert the same thing manually then i didn't get this error ...
The format I used is also yyyy-mm-dd then how to solve this error?????????
I am trying to write a SP in Query Analyzer before I start the code from a web form to acces it. Here is the SQL: ------------------------------------------- DECLARE @cReportGroups Varchar(500)DECLARE @StartDateRange DateTime DECLARE @EndDateRange DateTime SET @cReportGroups = '''VCCEddieBauer'',''VCCEddieBauerDirect'', ''VCCEddieBauerOrder'', ''VCCEddieBauerOvernight'', ''VCCEddieBauerSpanish'', ''VCCEddieBauerCustomerService''' SET @StartDateRange = '09-16-2007' SET @EndDateRange = '01-31-2008' BEGIN Declare @sql As Varchar(800) Set @sql = 'SELECT ttalkacd, cName, dIntervalStart, cReportGroup' + ' FROM IAgentQueueStats ' +' WHERE dIntervalStart >= ' + @StartDateRange ---- ' AND dIntervalStart <= ' + EndDateRange + ---- ' AND cReportGroup IN (' + @cReportGroups + ')' + ---- ' AND cHKey3 = ''*''' + -- ' ORDER BY dIntervalStart' --+ ---- ' COMPUTE SUM(ttalkacd)' --Print(@sql) exec (@sql) END ----------------------------------------------- Just trying to get the first >= filter working before I fill in the >= working to complete the date range logic. But I keep getting this conversion error. Why does SQL think that anything is a character string?All dates are declared as DateTime.I have tried a bunch of combinations like Convert(DateTime, @StartDateRange, 101).Nothing seems to work.
I received the above error message when I try to convert a field to a date.
Here is the line of sql:
convert(datetime, cast(EligibilityEndDate as char(8)), 112) as EligibilityEndDate,
EligibilityEndDate is stored as an integer in our source system, so dates display 20080201.
Looks like the data is not a correct date. If I just bring in the field as is, and load results into a text file or Access, I can't see the offending record. The query returns around 320K records.
Is there another way of finding the invalid record(s)?
Hi, I am trying to insert an entry into my database, but I keep on getting the following error: "Conversion failed when converting datetime from character string." My query is a parameterized T-SQL query (i.e. "INSERT INTO blah (name, dob) VALUES (@name, '@dob')"), and I have initialized the SqlCommand object by doing: sqlCmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@name", "Captain America"); sqlCmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@dob", birthdate.ToString("MM/dd/yyyy h:mm tt");
sqlCon.Open(); sqlCmd.ExecuteNonQuery(); sqlCon.Close(); The dob field in the table 'blah' is a smalldatetime datatype, and in the code above, the birthdate object is a DateTime object. I can insert into my database using a normal T-SQL through Management Studio, For example, INSERT INTO blah (name, dob) VALUES ('Captain America', '11/27/1923 12:34 PM') But it doesn't work when I try doing it the way I have listed above. It's really annoying because I don't know how to debug or if it is possible to debug the query. So first off, I want to ask, does anyone know how why this exception is occuring? Secondly, is it possible to debug the query? and if yes, how? And finally, is there a way for me to extract the T-SQL query sent to the SQL Server with the parameters filled in their values? For example, after adding all parameters to the SqlCommand via sqlCmd.Parameters.AddWithValue(), can I get the T-SQL query that is sent to the server?

I have a flat file source and am bringing it into an OLE DB Destination connected to a SQL Server 2005 database. Since I am bringing in the data via a flat file, I have a conversion step in the data flow, which uses a "Data Conversion" transformation to convert each column to the appropriate destination data type.
When I run my SSIS package, if the datetime column in the flatfile is NULL, then the Data Conversion step fails. I have my Data COnversion step set to redirect error rows to an error output. So, I get all the rows with populated datetime values in the intended destination, and none of the rows with null datetime values (these go to the error destination.)
This is a problem! I need to make sure all valid rows fall through. It seems very odd to me that a NULL datetime could not be converted to a datetime data type. This makes no sense, since a datetime column can naturally hold NULL, just like any other type. So, my question is: is this a bug??? It seems to me it is. I can't believe this would be the desired behavior?!
Microsoft: please let us know whether this is expected behavior. If so, then what would the desired workaround be?
I am using SQL Server 2000. I have created a Store Procedure to insert information, 4 of the fields are date types. I am using OleDb Data Provider (System.Data.OleDb) namespace.
The dates are filled by a form (web form) on submit event, I created a class that has functions to create my OleDb Parameters. I add the parameters to the command and execute it through a SQL Server Stored Procedure. In the event that I must have coded something wrong, I tested in the SQL Query Analyzer and the IN parameters for the date I used the getDate() method. This is where I know it is OleDb and SQL Server Parameters.
What Converstion Format should I use in the SP for the date? OleDb.date are doubles from some date in 1979 or something or another. So I used an OleDbDataType.DBDate. It seems that when the Stored Procedure uses the IN Parameters dates provided by OleDbDataType.Date or DBDate, that it doesn't like the int format. I am guessing that I am not converting the date in the parameters in the Insert of the Store Procedure... this is basically what I have...
Function to add parameters and execute SP
private int _startdate = DateTime.Now; private int _finishdate = DateTime.Now.AddDays(30);
CREATE PROCEDURE myInsert @StartDate datetime, @FinishDate datetime AS
INSERT INTO myTable (STARTDATE, FINISHDATE) VALUES (Convert(datetime, @StartDate), Convert(datetime, @FinishDate))
Please keep in mind that I am using System.Data.OleDb namespace..... please don't tell me to use SQLClient, it seems since I've been so adaptive of using OleDb, that it sould work just as well. I am way too far into this to change my Provider to SQL Client, but I promise myself that the next project (if using SQL Server, I will be using SQLClient and I will keep using OleDb for Oracle.) *sigh*
"pRecordSet" is an ADO recordset. The database column "MyColumn" is of type "decimal(19,10)".
The most important question for me is, if the regional settings of the database server or the regional settings of the client PC are considered during the conversion from the string to the decimal value. For example in standard French regional settings the "." would not be recognized as decimal separator.
I am also wondering if the language of the database instance, in which this data is saved, is considered during this conversion or any other settings of this database instance.
So my general question is: Does anybody know exactly what rules apply during the above mentioned conversion?
Hey im trying to store a category name and the date into a database. For some reason i keep getting this error Implicit conversion from data type datetime to int is not allowed. Use the CONVERT function to run this query. This error is the error im getting back from the database. the datetime field in the database is a datatype (DateTime) so what exactly is going on ?protected void InsertNewCat_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { string insertSql = "INSERT into Category (CategoryName,Date) VALUES (@Category, @Date)"; string conString = WebConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["ProCo"].ConnectionString; SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(conString); SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(insertSql, con); cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@Category", NewCat.Text); cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@Date",DateTime.Now);
I have problem to execute query with interval date.
If try this query I don't have problem and the output is correct:
SELECT * FROM dotable WHERE dotableDate BETWEEN CONVERT (datetime, '01/01/2015', 121) AND CONVERT (datetime, '09/01/2015', 121);Instead if try this I have error: SELECT * FROM dotable WHERE dotableDate BETWEEN CONVERT (datetime, '25/01/2015', 121) AND CONVERT (datetime, '28/01/2015', 121);

I'm very new to SSIS so please be patient and very detailed. Thank you in advance!
I have a SQL Table (tblImporData) with 2 columns: "Data" (varchar(40)) and "AccountNumber" (varchar(7)). I need to take the information in the "Data" column and parse it out into 3 different fields into a new table. I created the new table (tblExportData) with the following fields and data types: AcctNumber (varchar(7)), SiteName(nvarchar(10)), Balance (numeric(8,2)), and Active (nvarchar(1)).
Example of Data Field that I'm breaking up: 01Binford 001999Y
I've created a SSIS Package and in the dataflow I have an OLE DB Source going into a Derived Column. The derived column has the following information to split the data.
Derived Name Derived Column Expression Data Type Ln AcctNumber Replace 'AcctNumber' AcctNumber String[DT_STR] 7 SiteName <add as new column> SUBSTRING(Data,3,10) Unicode string 10 Balance <add as new column> SUBSTRING(Data,13,6) Unicode String 6 Active <add as new column> SUBSTRING(Data,19,1) Unicode String 1
So it should split my example into the following: AcctNumber SiteName Balance Active 12345 Binford 001999 Y
Everything works fine if the table I'm dumping the information to in SQL has varchar data types for all columns. But I need to convert my balance field from 001999 to 19.99. I tried putting a data conversion transform in that has the input column = Balance, Output Alias = Balance, Data Type = numeric [DT_NUMERIC], Precision = 8, and Scale = 2. I then changed the "Balance" data type to numeric(8,2) for the SQL table I'm dumping to, and added an OLE DB Destination to that table and mapped the columns.
When I try to run the package I'm getting an error at the Data Conversion that says the following:
[Data Conversion [698]] Error: Data conversion failed while converting column "Balance" (162) to column "Balance" (724). The conversion returned status value 2 and status text "The value could not be converted because of a potential loss of data.". [Data Conversion [698]] Error: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_INDUCEDTRANSFORMFAILUREONERROR. The "output column "Balance" (724)" failed because error code 0xC020907F occurred, and the error row disposition on "output column "Balance" (724)" specifies failure on error. An error occurred on the specified object of the specified component. There may be error messages posted before this with more information about the failure. [DTS.Pipeline] Error: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_PROCESSINPUTFAILED. The ProcessInput method on component "Data Conversion" (698) failed with error code 0xC0209029. The identified component returned an error from the ProcessInput method. The error is specific to the component, but the error is fatal and will cause the Data Flow task to stop running. There may be error messages posted before this with more information about the failure. [DTS.Pipeline] Error: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_THREADFAILED. Thread "WorkThread0" has exited with error code 0xC0209029. There may be error messages posted before this with more information on why the thread has exited.
So, what am I doing wrong? Is there a different way I should be doing this? As always, your help is appreciated more than you'll ever know!

i'm using a "data conversion" object to convert a numeric field to a string just before i save the record set to the database.
the problem is when this numeric field is > 0 it looses the precision on its decimal value.
example, if numeric value is 0.32
after converting this to a string, the new value will be : .32
it's lost the 0 infront of it. i can't do this converion in the query level because it's a derived field, so i need to convert it to a string before stroing it.
when converting to string i'm using the code page 1252 (ANSI - Latin I). i also tried with unicode string both looses this 0 infront.
I am trying to upload data from CSV to Sql table. I have a column as 'arrived_date' value '13:45' etc and while trying to load data i am getting error as "data conversion failed ,truncation may occur while loading data". In flat file connection this column datatype is string but in my table datatype is as time(). There is a error with conversion. I tried to change data type in advanced editor but no use. Using data conversion after flatfile makes my error disappear but it is giving error right at the file not even going through from file?

Recently i traspased a database from sql server 2000 in spanish to sql server 2005 in english. I change the language of the user sa to spanish and the database is in spanish. . The problem is our dateformat is dmy, i try to force with set dateformat dmy, but always i execute a stored procedure that have a date as input it fail. The error is:
Msg 295, Level 16, State 3, Procedure pa_CalendarioGestion, Line 40 Conversion failed when converting character string to smalldatetime data type.
The code of stored procedure in this line is:
set @diaActual = dateadd("d", @i, @fechaInicio)
This stored procedure in sql server 2000 in spanish not have any problems. For this reason i think the problem is in the configuration.
Hi i am working on sending data from a dat file to table in sql server Database and i am using the Data conversion transformation in ssis to convert string of fixed length into numeric (11,5) which is the datatype for the price field in the table and its returning an error saying that status vale 6 and error text as Conersion Failed sue to overflow of specific type ... Can anyone let me know how to overcome this error.
All source and target date fields are defined as data type "smalldatetime". The "select" executes without error though when used with "insert into" it fails with the error:
Msg 295, Level 16, State 3, Line 25: Conversion failed when converting character string to small date-time data type..I am converting from a character string to smalldatetime since the source and target date columns are "smalldatetime". All other columns for the source and target are nvarchar(255). I assume there is an implicit conversion that I don't understand. In a test, I validated that all dates selected evaluate ISDATE() to 1.
