Display Numeric Data As Text String?? Spell Out Number
Nov 5, 2007
How do I display numeric data as text string?? I need the report to spell out the number. 1 would read as One, 2 as Two ect. For example writing the amount on a check. Need to do in SSRS.
I have a column that I'm trying to call into a calculated measure to determine an expected contract amount (Terms in Month). The problem is that some of the terms are defined as text strings (MTM, Coterminous, One-time) while others are numbers (12, 36, etc). The entire column is recognized as text. I have a numeric value that management has agreed would be an acceptable substitution (MTM=1, Coterminous=6) and so on. I can't however, figure out how to convert those texts to a number since they are different data types. I've tried a nested IF statement, as well as a LOOKUPVALUE..I'm doing this in Power Pivot, so am limited to DAX formulas
I have a text field which has entries of variable length of the form:
"house:app.apx&resultid=1234,clientip" or "tost:app.apx&resultid=123,clientip" or "airplane:app.apx&resultid=123489,clientip"
I'm trying to pick out the numbers between resultid='...',clientip no matter what the rest of the string looks like. So in this example it would be the numbers:
1234 123 12389
the part of the string of the form resultid='...',clientip always stays the same except the length of the number can vary.
I have to display the data in the below said formats..Current sample Data in the table and the data type is numeric(23,10)
50.00 0.50 0.00 0.00
To be displayed in the below format
1.25 0.75 0 0 1
I have to map this column in teh report and should dipslay like above.I think if 0.00 is available then it should display as 0..If 1.0 is available then it should display 1.Any value that has postive number after the decimal should display all the values example : 2.25,3.75,5.06, So in general the solution to display values like 1.75,1,0 we should not dispaly 0 as 0.00 and 1 as 1.00 and 2 as 2.00 and so on...Any Solutions in terms of SQL query or SSRS expression.
I have the following problem. My SQL Query that i wrote works but the result that is displayed in Query analyzer cuts most of my long text that I want in my result. The long text string is approx about 400 characters and the type is varchar of the field. Any ideas??

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've been reading some problems with excel source data being force as numeric type when there are string/numeric type in the data, but adding IMEX=1 to the extended properties will fix this problem...this is true but not in my case...
say my excel file have about 40 rows..if row 1-39 in column A are all NULL and row 40 has a string in it, the string in row 40 will not be converted and the excel source is forcing this column A data type to be numeric..having IMEX=1 in there does not work..however..if i add a string anywhere in row 1-8 in column A, the the string in row 40 will be converted because the external data type now is a string..
This seems a bug to me. Or does anyone has a logical explanation that escapes me?
When in SSIS Designer Version 9.00.1399.00 I add output columns (numeric 4,0 ) to a scriptcomponent and fill them with valid numeric data in thescript I get a database error 'invalid number' when I use these columns in an OLE db Command-transformation . This errormessage disappears when I replaces those columns by a dataconversion to the datatype they originally have.
I have found a problem with my SSIS package. The package takes a Excel File using the Excel Source/Excel connection manager objects. There's a Data Conversion Object which sets all the fields to be DT_STR and then I import the data into a Holding table using a OLEDB Destination Object.
My Excel file contains a list of Code/Description pairs. The problem I have is that I can have data such as the following
CODE
A101
A102
A103
12
1.2i
What seems to be happening is that when the data is imported into the holding table and the first rows are Alphanumeric then the fields where there's a code such as 12 get converted to NULL for some reason. If all the codes are the same type (either Alphanumeric or numericit doesn't matter, as long as they are all the same) the import works perfectly well.
I need to be able to import all of these codes without SSIS converting some to NULL. Has anyone come across this problem before? If so, is there something I am doing wrong or a workaround?
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.
I have a parameter value as shown below and this is dynamic and can grow
Example : 101-NY, 102-CA, 165-GA 116-NY, 258-NJ, 254-PA, 245-DC, 298-AL How do I get the values in the below format NY,CA,GA --- each state to be followed with comma and the next state NY,NJ,PA,DC,AL --- each state to be followed with comma and the next state
correct query that will fetch only state names and not the numbers.
I have a report where I have to display State, Category Name and the text. Below is the sample report
State Category Name Text
TX Unanticipated High NT due to RADD clean up- drive replacement.
NJ Unanticipated SAR efforts (SEM configuration)
But now my question is if there is no comment in any other state I would like to show no comment in the text line. Is there any formula I can use in the report level that will take care of the issue. I know in Business object there is a formula you can create which is =If (IsNull([Text]);"No Comments Reported";[Text]). I need to know in ssrs there is something.
please let me know ASAP and the steps of doing that.
Ok so I got my insert statement to work properly from multiple text boxes and a button control. What I'm looking to do is once the customer hits the button and it creates the new row in the table I want to then display the recently created record. Currently when I hit submit it creates the record, but the screen then goes back to default. I can then go to another page that I created to browse the records and it sees that the record was created properly. I would like for the insert to complete and then for the recently created record to be displayed either with a pop up, on the same page, or on a different page that needs to be created. I've tried tons of different options, but haven't been able to figure it out. So what I'll do is show you the working code and if you could give me a little help on what code I need to add to accomplish the task.

when I run below query I got Error of Arithmetic overflow error converting numeric to data type numeric declare @a numeric(16,4)
set @a=99362600999900.0000
The 99362600999900 value before numeric is 14 and variable that i declared is of 16 length. Then why this error is coming ? When I set Length 18 then error removed.
I'm getting the above when trying to populate a variable. The values in question are : @N = 21 @SumXY = -1303765191530058.2251000000 @SumXSumY = -5338556963168643.7875000000
When I run, SELECT (@N * @SumXY) - (@SumXSumY * @SumXSumY) in QA I get the result OK which is -28500190448996439680147097583285.072256 ie 32 places to left of decimal and 6 to the right When I try the following ie to populate a variable with that value I get the error - SELECT R2Top = (@N * @SumXY) - (@SumXSumY * @SumXSumY)@R2Top is NUMERIC (38, 10)
I have a numeric data field called Price and this has a value of 0.000 in the db. when i create a package to extract this data to a flat file, the value is displayed as .000 what should i do to make it appear as 0.000 in the flat file.
I tried using a derived column expression where i check if the db value is 0.000 and display it as a string "0.000". this works fine if the OLEDB source is a sql command but fails if the OLEDB source is a sql command from variable.
Hi,I would like to convert a dollar amount ($1,500) to represent Fifteenhundred dollars and 00/100 cents only for SQL reporting purposes. Isthis possible and can I incorporate the statement into an existingleft outer join query.Thanks in advance,Gavin
I was wondering if someone could tell me how to use an SQL Function to remove everything from the mess of characters below except 'Test.' Really, any message could be substituted, so it's not as easy to leave everything except the 'Test.' string.
{ tf1ansiansicpg1252deff0deflang1033{fonttbl{f0fnilfcharset0 MS Shell Dlg 2;}{f1fnil MS Shell Dlg 2;}} {colortbl ; ed0green0lue0;} {*generator Msftedit 5.41.15.1507;}viewkind4uc1pard x720cf1f0fs20 Test.f1par }
It's RichText.
The fs20 could be fs24, fs25, etc. (any numbers). The end of the number would be the point to trim the beginning off.
The '' seems like it would be the point to start trimming the end off.
I've been experimenting with SUBSTRING together with CHARINDEX, but am just not getting even close to coming up with a solution.
I am trying to load a SQL 2005 table which contains an XML data type using SSIS. The source is a text data file which is driven by a record-type (ie. 01 = course; 02 = conference) that will be used to determine the format of the XML. Being not too familiar with XML, I am struggling with the proper way to generate the XML which I can output to a string column.
Do I use xmlTextWriter for this or someother method?
Is there a way to output the formatted Xml as a string column from my Script Transformation? Should I be using a stream data column?
Are there any good examples that I can refer to? As you can probably tell I am clueless how to handle the XML. Can I even move the xml result to a string???
Im trying to determine the best way to store data gathered from a form that a user will fill out online. The form is dynamic and is customized at run time based on group-specific criteria. The end result is a form that might have 3 extra text boxes, 2 extra sets of radio buttons and a freeform textbox, whereas for another group, there might be a slightly different set of input fields. Now comes the issue of storing this data. Since the fields can be somewhat dynamic, it could get tricky to define table columns for each possible input field. So Im considering storing the data as xml. Has anyone else had to build custom forms and ended up storing the data as xml ?
I'm trying to parse out a line of data that is separated by the text "atc1.", "atc2." etc.
For example,
[atc1.123/atc2.456/atc3.789/atc4.xyz/]
If I only want the data after atc2., then I could search the string for "atc2." and collect all the characters afterwards. But how can I make sure to trim off all the data after "atc3." to make sure I'm only collecting "456" from the example above?
I have an Excel/ vba module to update a SQL database. One of the data is numeric. If the data is a positive number, there is no problem, but if the number (zscore) in Excel is negative an error pops up: Error converting datatype varchar to numeric.

Hi all, I defined an user string type varible in the package as AccountLen. I am trying to use this varible in the Expression of Derived Column transformation. I want to retrieve a part of column, i.e: Right(Column1, @AccountLen), this is always wrong because the AccountLen is string type. How I can convert it to the numeric so that can be used in the RIGHT function? Thanks
I have a database table with 2 numeric fields. The values to be inserted into these fields come from text boxes in an ASP.NET page. So in the parameters to add into these fields I simply use 'textbox1.text' & textbox2.text'.
One of the fields accepts the data within the text box and adds it into the appropriate numeric data field in the table. However on the other text box I get an error message 'Error converting data type nvarchar to numeric.'
Does anyone know why this occurs just on the one entry and not the other?, and if anyone has any suggestions on how to get around this please let me know.
