Float Type Steals My Decimal Points And Money Type Kills My Query
Mar 28, 2008Happy Friday!
A while since I have posted a question, and this one is probably real easy.
I am trying to store numeric values from a php form in MSSQL 2000 database. However, the columns are set to float and if the value is 1.00, when entered into the table it is saved as 1
If I change the column type to money, the query fails, with an error message of conversion of datatype varchar to datatype money statement terminated.
anybody know what I need to do? do I need to do something in my query to specify that this is NOT varchar data?

Rounding Decimal Points In An Expression
Nov 1, 2006This sounds so simple but yet don't know why it doesn't work.
i've got two decimal numbers in columns
closingUnits = 25093.53640
closingAmt = 59110.33
i use a derived column transformation to generate a string column which is the division of those two above.
mystrfield = closingAmt /closingUnits = 2.355599
what i want is cast it to just 4 decimal points when i run the expression below it cast it to 4 decimal points but it doesn't do any rounding.
the value i get is 2.3555 when i should get 2.3556
(ISNULL(closingAmt ) || closingUnits == 0) ? "0.0000" : ((closingAmt / closingUnits) < 1 && (closingAmt / closingUnits) > -1 ? "0" : "") + (DT_WSTR,15)(DT_DECIMAL,4)(closingAmt / closingUnits)

When To Use Money, SmallMoney, Decimal
Aug 27, 2004Could someone explain to me what the best practices are for using these three data types? (i.e. when to use them). I thought this would be a simple answer to find, but after looking through books on line, and this forum, I have still not found the answer. Can anyone help?
View 1 Replies View RelatedHelp Withrounding Money To 2 Decimal Places?
Oct 26, 2004I have a table with a money field that had previously been running calculation and storing the data into the database's money field. Since this field supports 4 decimal places, it was storing 4 decimal places worth of data. I have since cleaned up my insert routine to round everything up to two decimal places and it only inserts the rounded values. I now have to go back and update the old data with the two decimal place rule. How would I go about doing this?

Data Types: DECIMAL Vs. MONEY
Aug 29, 2007What significant difference is there between the two data types when we are indeed dealing with monetary values (other than being able to set the precision and scale)?
Is there a performance gain from one over the other? Are there administrative-related concerns that should force someone to choose one over the other? Are there any concerns of the MONEY data type being sunsetted by Microsoft anytime in the near future?
Can someone please help me out here?
[EDIT]
I was referring to "fields" in the first sentence when it should've been "data types".

Decimal Places On Money Values
Sep 6, 2007Hi
I have an SQL search that is converting two values to type money. I want it to show two digits after the decimal point but am getting inconsistent results. The first value is as follows:
tblInventoryItem.itemcost as originalcost (the column is datatype money)
This displays correctly i.e. 2000.00 or 150.70 etc
The second value is this:
tblInventoryItem.itemcost + tblUpgrades.ItemCost as totalcostincupgr (both columns are datatype money)
But this displays as 2000 or 150.7
How can I get the second value to show two decimal places even when the digits are zeros?
Thanks!

Money Datatype
Jan 27, 2003Greetings,
How do you keep or round a money datatype to use only 2 decimal places? I have an instance where I am multiplying a money with a decimal datatype. The decimal has up to 8 decimal places. This is causing the money datattype to extend to 4 decimal places. This makes for problems when I am comparing 2 values.
ex.)
IF 14.88 >= 14.8821
99% of the time this does not happen, but is causing problems. Does anyone have any suggestions?
thanks in advance,
Roger
Datatype For US Money
Feb 12, 2008Do you usually use the money or smallmoney datatype for US dollars in a table, or do you use a decimal datatype, and if so which. Any opinions on the advantages and disadvantages of each?
If you use money or smallmoney, do you usually add a constraint to make sure the value is even to the penny (no $24.3487 type amounts)?

Decimal DataType
Jun 25, 2004Hi,
I have a column ,Lines decimal(10,2).
The data in this column is not properly displayed in crystal reports.
Eg: the data in the column is 24.34, it's being displayed like 345234352
Why this is so? When the data type is int, there's no problem. Because of this I'm not able to display decimals in my report. Which data type in sql server is apt for my task.
Please help.

Decimal Datatype
Jan 12, 2004I have looked at the SQL Docs, and am trying to create a test table that uses a column of Numeric Datatype. But for some reason, it is rounding to the nearest Integer as opposed to using a decimal value.
Heres the SQL I use to create the table:
CREATE TABLE Test (ID int IDENTITY(1,1), Test_Numeric numeric(2,0))
dont laugh if its obvious, cause I dont use decimal values very much :P

What DataType Is Best ... Float, Double Or Decimal?
Sep 25, 2006
I am using sql express 2005 and sql server 2005 with C# 2.0.
I am a bit confused about which data type i should be using for several fields.
Right now I am declaring all of my fields in sql server as float for everything except for money fields which are using money.
When loaded into C# these fields are converted to double and decimal because C# does not have a float datatype.
Should I be using Decimal or Double for everything instead?
Here are a few examples
QtyInvoiced (float) - holds the number of items invoice
possible values look like this 1.0, 1.25 or 1.5
PercentDiscount (float) - holds a percentage
possible values look like this
10.25, 20.50, 50.00
I appreciate the help.
Decimal Datatype Conversion From DB2 To SSIS Throught Microsoft OLE DB Provider For DB2
May 1, 2007Hi All,
Here is a description of the issue I'm facing about decimal datatype conversion from DB2 to SSIS throught Microsoft OLE DB Provider for DB2.
I first discovered it when I tried to use a LookUp trans. and selected a decimal typed field. I was unable to validate it and clicking the OK button threw the error copied below:
TITLE: Microsoft Visual Studio
------------------------------
Error at Data Flow Task [DTS.Pipeline]: The "output column "MFIXFRA" (317)" has a value set for length, precision, scale, or code page that is a value other than zero, but the data type requires the value to be zero.
------------------------------
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
Exception from HRESULT: 0xC0204019 (Microsoft.SqlServer.DTSPipelineWrap)
------------------------------
BUTTONS:
OK
------------------------------
Some workarounds on this issue led me to two other strange behaviours:
- If I create a dataflow task to perform a raw copy of a DB2 table to a brand new table in SQLServer destination (by clicking "new" instead of choosing an existing destination table), generated "create table" script for decimal fields is quite different from source table. For example, a source field declared Dec(15,2) is translated as Dec(29,5), and so on.
- Quite same behaviour if I try to derive a column using as derived column trans. If the source column is a decimal, it's scale and precision are interpreted ramdomly.
Any idea welcome

Update Cur_points With Cur_points+points, Then Wipe Points (was Help Needed Please)
Jun 22, 2007Greetings everyone, I'm posting this thread with the hope that someone will notice it and might offer me a helping hand regarding one of my problems.I have the database named "DBEXAMPLE" with the table MEMB_INFO that contains two important columns that are named cur_points and points where cur_points column contains the total available points that a member can use/spend on a game and the points column stores the total of the points that a member used so far.So as i plan to wipe all data of the database, i need to keep the member login,password and total points that each member purchased.So i will somehow need to update the cur_points column with the total of current cur_points+points columns and then wipe points column.I've personally asked a friend regarding this and he said that this should be something complicated and it might require php also.Really appreciate if someone could help me regarding this.small schema:Database: DBEXAMPLETable: MEMB_INFOColumn cur_points -> total available points that a member can spendColumn points -> total points that the member has already spentColumn memb___id -> member login aka account idTODO -> update cur_points column with the total of cur_points+points columns for each member(buyer)With best regards.
View 5 Replies View RelatedHow Can I Cast A Money Field In A View To Look Like Money
Oct 16, 2007I have a special need in a view for a money column to look like money and still be a money datatype. So I need it to look like $100.00 (prefered) or 100.00(can make work).
If I convert like this '$' + CONVERT (NVARCHAR(12), dbo.tblpayments.Amount, 1) it is now a nvarchar and will not work for me.
How can I cast so it is still money? by default the entries look like 100.0000.
They must remain a money datatype.
Legacy Database Uses Decimal Data Types.--&> AutomobileTypeId (PK, Decimal(10,0), Not Null) Why Not Integers Instead ?

Data Type With Decimal Point For Decimal Values But Not For Whole Integers
Dec 8, 2013I am creating a table on SQL Server. One of the columns in this new table contains whole integer as wells as decimal values (i.e. 4500 0.9876). I currently have this column defined as Decimal(12,4). This adds 4 digits after the decimal point to the whole integers. Is there a data type that will have the decimal point only for decimal values and no decimal point for the whole integers?
