I need to display decimal results from SQL Server queries, but the decimals keep getting truncated. For example, 9 divided by 4, keeps getting truncated to 2. Does anyone know how to display the whole result, including the decimals?
View 2 RepliesI am trying to use bcp to load a text file into SQL Server 7. The decimal numbers in the text file are formatted as 123455 and when I load the values to SQL I want the last two digits to be the decimal 1234.55. My current process is loading the value as 123455.00. What do I need to do in the format file to get this to work???

This is what I have:
DECLARE @OnTime int
DECLARE @UnControlled int
DECLARE @Volume int
DECLARE @GrossEffect decimal(10,2)
DECLARE @NetEffect decimal(10,2)
DECLARE @WeekEndDate datetime
SET @OnTime = (SELECT COUNT(DataID) FROM tblEDITempARS WHERE OnTimeFlag = 1 AND ARSScanType = 'D' AND ARSType='AN')
SET @UnControlled = (SELECT COUNT(DataID) FROM tblEDITempARS WHERE ControlFlag = 'U' AND ARSScanType = 'D' AND ARSType='AN')
SET @Volume = (SELECT COUNT(DataID) FROM tblEDITempARS WHERE ARSScanType = 'D' AND ARSType='AN')
SET @GrossEffect = (@OnTime/@Volume * 100)
SET @NetEffect = ((@OnTime + @UnControlled)/@Volume * 100)
SET @WeekEndDate = (SELECT DISTINCT WeekEndDate FROM tblEDITempARS)
INSERT INTO tblSummaryData2(ReportType, Volume, NetEffect, GrossEffect, WeekEndDate)
VALUES ('AN',
@Volume,
@NetEffect,
@GrossEffect,
@WeekEndDate)
My numbers are:
OnTime=8089
Uncontrolled=6
Volume=8095
The GrossEffect comes as 0 and the NetEffect=100

Why is my GrossEffect = 0??? it should be 99.9
Hello, I have a table with a field with the format of 8 decimals. When I make a select to that table instead is given me (for example) 25,00 it gaves me 25,00000000. How can I fix the with the correct format? Thanks in advance.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a field in my SQL table that is defined Decimal(10,8), which
provides me with the ability to have up to 8 digits after the decimal
place, however, if I store a value such as 3.14, it is stored as
3.14000000. This is fine in the database, but it is the same when it's
returned. I have tried using Convert.ToDecimal on my returned row but
it doesn't work. The value at runtime appears as 3.14D in the locals
window but displays with all the insignifcant digits.
Any ideas what's happening or if there is an easy way to trim the trailing zeros?
Hello,
I want a view to always present my numeric fields with 2 decimals. In my table I have the following values in field "amount" (numeric(18,2))

I want the view to show
181.25
176.50

I have two fields whose format in the table is decimal (14,5).
I now have to divide one field by the other, and I want the result
to be in the format decimal (21,16).
Whatever I do I'm not able to get this result with sixteen decimals.
I tried with dec(Field1,21,16)/Field2 but it yields six decimals.
I tried with dec(Field1,21,16)/Field2 but it yields an integer.
I tried other ways but I always get a result which is made of maximum
six decimals.
What can I do?
Thank you.

I am relatively new to SQL server. I am tring to send some decimalvalues to the database using a stored procedure with parameters of typeDECIMAL. Every time it inserts the values into the database thedecimals are truncated. I saw on the MSDN library that you have to setthe precision and scale values b/f you run the stored procedure. So Iset the precision to 8 and the scale to 4 and it still didn't help. Cananyone help me?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm using the sum() agregate function inside a select with a decimal field with an scale of 2.
I want to get the result always with 2 decimals, but if the result is 100.10 I get 100.1 . I've tried
to convert and cast the result but I can't find how to get 2 decimals. Please help. Thanks
Hello,
I have encountered a problem doing an update on a Field defined as DECIMAL with dbcursor().
I have opened a cursor with dbcursoropen() with option LOCK_CC set. Then I have bound some char variables to CHAR Fields with STRINGBIND and some double Variables to the DECIMAL fields with FLT8BIND.
When I read the cursor, the data is correct in the bound variables. But when I do an update, all data for the numeric fields are gone and the database contains only NULL Values. The Strings are updated correctly.
I have tried to set the length, I am using the poutlen-variables with a value other than 0, but nothing helps.
Does anyone have an idea about what can I do?
Thank You in advance.

Can someone suggest a FAST way to select Currency values where the number has more than X decimal places? There are zillions of rows so looping in code is not the preferred solution.
(a bug forgot to round)
Thanks for your help
I have the following field(Fields!SequenceNO.Value), coming form database.
i would like to have an expression IIF...
if the value coming from database is just 1, then make it 1.00 or
if the value coming from database has a period or point say 1.01 then show as it is.
thank you very much for the help / information....
Script as follows :
select cast( 0.0050000000 as decimal(38,23)) * cast(0.0000010000 as decimal(38,23))
select cast( 0.0050000000 as decimal(28,23)) * cast(0.0000010000 as decimal(28,23))
select cast( 0.01 as decimal(28,15)) * cast(0.0000000001 as decimal(28,15))
select cast( 0.01 as decimal(28,16)) * cast(0.0000000001 as decimal(28,16))
The result was following：
0.0000000--was zero
0.000000005000000000000000000
0.00000000000--was zero
0.0000000000010
Hi,
Im having a decimal value of 1.24
im rounding off the value to 1 precision
ex:- select round(1.24,1)
the output its returning is 1.20
i want to get only 1.2
can anyone suggest on this??
I am trying use the decimal data type for a field in SQL Server. When I input the values below, they round off.
73.827 Rounds to 74
1925.1 Rounds to 1925
119.79 Rounds to 120
What am I missing? Access never gave me this issue. Do you see any reason this would happen? I am entering the values into the table directly!
I have a table I am trying to create and one of the columns needs to have a decimal that appears as 00.00 and does not round because the data example is 87.09, 86.50, 98.55 etc. I have tried every type of decimal formatting when creating I can find and nothing has worked. When I create the table and upload the data it keeps rounding like this: 87.00, 87.00, 99.00
The only way it does not round is if I do it as a char but that does not seem right when dealing with numerics.
what re the sql functions to manipulate numbers, decimals, dates..
1/ like if I have 123443.78654 I want to display just 2 decimals : 123443.78 or 3 decimals ..
2/ also if I want to have bankers rounding
3/ how about dates conversion : from string to date type and vice versa and adding dates, substracting dates, getting the day, the month....
what re the SQL functions to do that pls
I have a table which I want to update by dividing one field intoanother. The update runs with no errors, but the results come out asonly a positive integer number.The datatype for the result field is float.The datatype for the other fields are int.I have tried testing by dividing 7 by 10000, which should give me0.0007. The result in the database is 0.How do I define a field to show the full value with decimal positions?If I enter .0007 into the field through the Enterprise Manager, it shows0007. When I update by dividing, it shows 0.Any help would be welcome.Joel*** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com ***Don't just participate in USENET...get rewarded for it!

I wonder if anyone can help?
I want to set an integer (int) as a data type , but I want it also to accept decimals.
What must I set the data type as , when making my table?

I'm new to SQL so please walk me through this step by step.
All the columns in my table have a data type of nvarchar, however, some of them need to be changed to decimals.
Here's an example of what my table (cicc.972file) looks like now
Account nvarchar(8) Balance nvarchar(8) Percent nvarchar(5)
45678935 459600 03500
78965215 005643 10000
and here's what I need it to look like
Account Number Balance Percent
45678935 4596.00 0.3500
78965215 56.43 1.0000
This seems like it should be ridiculously easy, but I keep running into road blocks. Like I said, this is just a sample from my table. My real table has 90 columns in it and about half of them need to be changed to either a dollar representation or a percent.
Thanks for you help!

I am trying to get a decimal value from this simple user defined function, but it is not working. CREATE FUNCTION dbo.GETANSWERRETURNS decimal(6,2)ASBEGIN DECLARE @Result decimal(6,2)
SELECT @Result = 10 / 4
RETURN @Result
ENDThe real answer is 2.5, but I keep getting 2. Also, if I replace 10 / 4 with 3 / 4, I get the answer 0. I tried several things like changing decimal to numeric and still get the same results.
Hello,
I'm trying to import data from an Excel sheet into a table. Not all of them is imported.
Exl: 0,000801054857569349 becomes
Sql: 0,000801054857569350 when it is imported.
The column in SQL-Server is defined as DECIMAL 28.18, should take all 18 numbers i thought. Tried 28.19 also but it only added another zero at the end.
I've tried importing via DTS and manually import,same result both times.
Any suggestions?

If I pull a value from a MSSQL field with is defined as money, how can I get it to display in a textbox with commas and NO decimals?
87000.0000 = 87,000
I can currently remove the decimals like below but is there a way to add the commas as well?
decRevenue = drMyData("Revenue")
txtRevenue.Text = decRevenue.ToString("f0")
It current shows "87000".
My server is a dual AMD x64 2.19 GHz with 8 GB RAM running under Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition with service pack 1 installed. We have SQL 2000 32-bit Enterprise installed in the default instance. AWE is enabled using Dynamically configured SQL Server memory with 6215 MB minimum memory and 6656 maximum memory settings.
I have now installed, side-by-side, SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition in a separate named instance. Everything is running fine but I believe SQL Server2005 could run faster and need to ensure I am giving it plenty of resources. I realize AWE is not needed with SQL Server 2005 and I have seen suggestions to grant the SQL Server account the 'lock pages in memory' rights. This box only runs the SQL 2000 and SQL 2005 server databases and I would like to ensure, if possible, that each is splitting the available memory equally, at least until we can retire SQL Server 2000 next year. Any suggestions?
Hi,
We have an old machine which holds SQL server 2000 database. We need to migrate a whole database to a new machine which has SQL server 2005.
When we tried to move whole database using Import and Export Wizard, only tables can be selected to import/export. However we want to import/export the whole database, including tables, stored procedure, view, etc. Which tool should we use?
Thanks.
