Here is what I have
CDec(Sum(Val(Fields!Test1.Value))/(Val(CountRows("Group1"))*SomeNumber)*100%)
This works fine
but the problem is the number can be 25.325641. I only want to get 25 so I did this
say, i have a column in the database that has number values. I want to display these number with comma separators (Eg: if the column values is 1654, then i want to display it as 1,654).
And I would like to pull them from the table using sql 2008 and have the formatting look like this:
(111)555-1212 x1234.
How can I make this happen? Where numbers are missing, I would prefer to leave the area blank, ie 5551212 becomes 555-1212, and 1115551212 becomes (111)555-1212, extension numbers only where they are currently included.
Hi I'm trying to convert and format integer values in a SQL Server select statement to a string representation of the number formated with ,'s (1000000 becomes 1,000,000 for example). I've been looking at CAST and CONVERT and think the answers there somewhere. I just don'tseem to be able to work it out. Anyone out there able to help me please? Thanks,Keith.
I have a column of phone numbers that have formatting such as (xxx)xxx-xxxx, or xxx.xxx.xxxx or xxx.xxx-xxxx; however, not all phone numbers are formatted in this fashion. I need to remove all characters and only leave behind numeric digits to look like xxxxxxxxxx. I have tried select replace(colname,'-','') from table. This does the trick but does not actually change the values in the column. Any help in accomplishing this would be helpful. Thanks in advance.
I need creating date of birth using ID number the ouput that im looking is a follows
e.g. RSA ID: 800101 (80 is year, 01 is month and 01 is day) that will be 1980 01 01 e.g. RSA ID: 000101 (00 is year, 01 is month and 01 is day) that will be 2000 01 01
The desired format I need is to take the above and create date of birth with the below format as required by the application used.
SQL query: I am importing data from one source to another. The phone number has 3 variations and I want to standardize the information. I need to remove the "+1" or "1" from the leading characters of the phone number.
I am trying to get my SQL create table to work for my phone number formatting and it is not. When I create the below code, the default is set to 3 numbers only.
CREATE SET TABLE dl_qpt_cqe.contacts, NO FALLBACK ,NO BEFORE JOURNAL,NO AFTER JOURNAL
Once again, SSIS is giving me a 'F.U.N.' time (ask for definition of the F.U.N. acronym another time ).
I have a relatively simple task - create an excel spreadsheet with 3 columns of data - Id, Description and Sales. ID and Description are text, sales is int.
So my SP aggregates and creates my resultset in my OLE DB Source in the Data Flow. It proceeds to the Excel destination, and that all seems fine. My issue is that the data is being written as text. Looking at the excel destination in Advanced editor: the Excel Destination Input, Input columns are formatted as I expected: DT_WSTR 8 for the ID, DT_WSTR 100 for the Description and DT_I4 for the Sales. Excel Destination Input, External columns refuse to fall in line, though. They are all listed as DT_WSTR 255.
The target excel spreadsheet is being created from a template file. That template file has header columns. The target column for the Sales has the entire column formatted to NUMBER (0 decimals). Yet to now avail.
When I check the spreadsheet, the column has retained the cell formatting, and I have a 'I' pop-up to inform me that 'someone' has inserted text data into the number column (even though the data IS number).
Since the SP spits out INT, it isn't a case of receiving a text value, imho. While trying to change the external column data type in the advanced editor, SSIS is quite happy to let me change the value for the Sales output to DT_I4, apply, and ok. Then, when I open it immedaitely aftgerwards, it has reverted to the DT_WSTR's! AArrgh. If is can't handle it, at least tell me when I try and change it. don't let me change it, and then revert back without telling me! Grumble grumble...
when i try to export reports to excel number fileds has exported as text !!
I use SQL server with database in US codepage, Reporting Services in english version but excel with Italian codepage settings.
So i must convert the defaul decimal separator from "." to "," within the report generation. This cause that i can't use te cdbl() conversion directly in the report field.
Anyone have sugestion ??
P.S. I can't change the database and excel codepage settings
I know this is very simple, and I've done it before, but now I can't remember how to do it and I keep failing to do it correctly. I want to format a 6 digit number like this: 00-00-00. The number is returned from the database as 6 digits, and I just want to add the dashes.
I tried putting ##-##-## in the Format cell in the properties of the textbox (which I thought worked before) but it's not doing the trick. What am I doing wrong here?
i am trying to build a database that contains a coloumn of phone number but i reallly dont know where and how i will be able to give a specific format for phone numbers.. or anything else any common type of information that may have a format..
Will i use Visual Web Developer or SQL Server Management or whatever else to arrange my phone number coloumn?
Please give me the correct function name, otherwise please ignore in sending reply. I had used all the functions like identity, ident and so on. I need while selecting a querry, i need to generate serial numbers. I dont have identity column in my table. But, i need to generate serial numbers..
In Sybase SQL Any where, we have a function called Number (*) which will in turn generate serial numbers like ex..
Select Number (*) from x
The output will be
Number(*) 1 2 3 4 5 6 and so on..
I need a equivalent function in SQL Server 7.0 in which if i do select on that particular function with a table i should return above values..
Line 1 Name: George Addresss date raise 125254 Test 10 125254 Test 10 125254 Test 10 125254 Test 10

Department:B ¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦.. Here is what I did I have a list control that is grouped by department. this will get me the info from Line 1 to Line 10 then this list control is actually under another list control that is grouped by department to get the info from Line 15. I used this example for simplicity and what I am doing is fairly similar to this situation. My problem is, I need to find away to know how many totals I have to count the total for the entire department. In other words : from the example above how can I know I have to divide by 3 to get 33%. I can get the 100 without any problem but I cant tell what number I need to divided by. I tried to use Count(Name.Field) I was hoping this will give me 3 which indicates the divided number. But I was getting 7 for some reason. How can I get the number of times the list control was implemented for one department which is in this case 3?

hi, I have settup up sql mail and did the following: 1. created an E-mail account and configured Out look by creating a pop3 mail profile. tested it by sending and receiving mail, that is ook 2. I Created one domain account for MSsqlserver and Sql Agent service. both services use same account and start automatically in the control panel-services 3. I used the profile that I created in outlook to test the sql mail but got an error: Error 22030 : A MAPI error ( error number:273) occurred: MapiLogon Ex Failed due to MAPI Error 273: MAPI Logon Failed
I really do not know what went wrong. I followed the steps from bol and still having a problem. Am I missing something.
I do have a valid email account I do have a valid domain account I tested outlook using the email account and it worked. so why sql server does not recognise MAPI.
My next question, How to configure MAPI in Sql server if what I did was wrong.

Hello, I am facing a huge problem in my sql server database using access as a front end.The main problem is trying to execute queries "views" ,since they reside on sql server now,and using variables or parameters in reports and forms to filter on this query. Ex. how can the following be implemented using the same query but in sql server? Access ------ SELECT MAT_Charts.YYYYMM FROM MAT_Charts WHERE ((([Area_Code] & "-" & [GROUP_CODE])=[Reports]![MAT_Chart_C1].[MAT_Key])) GROUP BY MAT_Charts.YYYYMM;
It is specifically this statement in which I am interested: [GROUP_CODE])=[Reports]![MAT_Chart_C1].[MAT_Key]))
declare @NumberToCompareTo int set @NumberToCompareTo = 8 declare @table table ( number int ) insert into @tableΒ select 4
[Code] ....
The query selects 4 and 5 of course. Now what I'm looking for is to retrieve the number less or equal to @NumberToCompareTo, I mean the most immediate less number than the parameter. So in this case 5
in my sql, i want to change a decimal number to percent format number, just so it is convenient for users. for example there is a decimal number 0.98, i want to change it to 98%, how can i complete it?
I am currently designing a SSIS package to integrate data into a data warehouse fact table. This fact table has about 70 columns among which 17 are foreign keys for dimension tables.
To insert data in that table, I have to make several transformations and lookups. Given the fact that the lookups I have to make are a little complicated, I have about 70 tasks in my Data Flow. I know it's a lot, but I can't find a way to make it simpler. It seems I really need all these tasks.
Now, the problem is that every new action I try to make on the package takes a lot of time. At design time, everything is very slow. My processor is eavily loaded each time I change a single setting in one of the tasks, and executing the package in debug mode takes for ages. If I take a look at the size of my package file on disk, it's more than 3MB.
Hence my question : Are there any limitations in terms of number of columns or number of tasks that can be processed within a Data Flow ?
If not, then do you have any idea why it's so slow ?
I have a large table of customers. I would like to add a column that contains an integer, unique to that customer. The trick is that this file contains many duplicate customers, so I want the duplicates to all have the same number between them.the numbers dont have to be sequential or anything, just like customers having the same one.
I have a table that has a street number field. if the user types in a street number of '2' i would like to return all street numbers the begin with 2 (2,20,21, 200, 201,205,2009,...) how can this be done.
Hello people,I might sound a little bit crazy, but is there any possibility that youcan incorporate 4^15 (1,073,741,824) tables into a SQL Database?I mean, is it possible at all? There might be a question of whereanyone would want so many tables, but i'm a bioinformatics guy and I'mtrying to deal with genomic sequences and was coming up with a newalgorithm, where the only limit is the number of tables I can put intoa Database.So, can you please advise if its possible to put in so many tables intoa SQL database? Or is the Bekerley DB better?
I am testing something in Visual Basic that talks to a database and I want to filter results by -> field1 like "###". However, that 'like' and '#' is VB syntax. How do you say that in SQL?
Hello all,I have a strange problem that i need some advice on. I have the following field called FILENO. It is a SQL 2000 field with the Data Type set to Char (7). The following sql statement works perfectly:SELECT TOP 1 RTRIM(FILENO) AS TEST, RIGHT(DATEPART(Yy, FILENOYEAR), 2) AS YEAR FROM tblRecordsWHERE RIGHT(DATEPART(Yy, FILENOYEAR), 2) = '05'ORDER BY FILENO DESCIt returns the correct data, 0050. Now, what i'm trying to do is add 1 to the value so i can get the next available number which is 0051. But, when i run the following sql statement, i get 51 instead of 0051.SELECT TOP 1 RTRIM(FILENO+1) AS TEST, RIGHT(DATEPART(Yy, FILENOYEAR), 2) AS YEAR FROM tblRecordsWHERE RIGHT(DATEPART(Yy, FILENOYEAR), 2) = '05'ORDER BY FILENO DESCDoes anyone have an idea how to solve this? Thanks.Richard M.
I'm working as a consultant for a project and I have been having constant issues with the in house "database guru" about stored procedure formating.
He insists I use a format similar to this:
create procedure getUser @UserId int = NULL as select UserName , UserPassword , UserRole from Users join UserRole on User.ID = UserRole.ID where User.ID = @UserID and User.Active = 1
where as I prefer this format:
create procedure getUser ( @UserId int = NULL ) as select UserName, UserPassword, UserRole from Users join UserRole on User.ID = UserRole.ID where User.ID = @UserID and User.Active = 1
Now normally I don't argue about style issues but I find his format confusing and it bothers me that it senselesly wastes lines make the stored procedure longer than necessary.
I'd love to get some comments on this issue or reference to any discussions on issues such as this.
