Having Conversion Issues - String To Float
Apr 26, 2007
I am running into some issues with conversion and would appreciate someone who can help on this.
I need to roll up a column which contains numeric (float) data but it is stored in a varchar field.
I was trying to do the following (please note that Activity field is varchar(50) in MyTable):
SELECT CONVERT(float, (NULLIF(Activity,0))) from MyTable
and i get the following error.
Msg 245, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Conversion failed when converting the varchar value '-39862.8' to data type int.
I even tried with case statement (as below) but still got same issue.
SELECT CASE ISNUMERIC(NULLIF(Activity,0))
WHEN 1 THEN
CONVERT(float, (NULLIF(Activity,0)))
ELSE 0
END
from MyTable
Thanks,
Ashish

hi,
i'm get some strange behaviour with the money and float type. with a calculator divide 70 by 47 and multiply by 40 (70 / 47 * 40) and you get 59.5744 (rounded to nearest 4 decimal places). now try this in query analyser with the 70 as a money type and the result as a float:
declare @price money
declare @result float
select @price = 70
select @result = @price / 47 * 40
Print 'result = ' + str(@result,18,4)
now this will print out 59.5720
am i missing something ?

I have a statement that works in compatibility mode 8 of SQL Server2000 while it fails in 7:declare @P3 intexec sp_prepexec @P3 output, N'@P1 float', N'select custname fromcustomer where custnr = @P1', 12600034custnr is a varchar(15). As long as the float p1 is less than1,000,000 the query returns correct results, but as soon as p1 isequal or greater than 1,000,000 the resultset is empty. I couldfigure, that above 1 million, sp_exec converts the float intoexponential format and compares this format to the string containingfixed format values. As said above, in mode 8 the statement returnscorrect results above 1,000,000.Please don't ask me, why we use float variables - I don't have anyinfluence on the statement - we isolated the statement with theprofiler.We are also currently dependent on the compatibility mode 7.I would be very grateful if you have any ideas, help or other issuesfor me.Thank you,Peter

I can't take full credit for this. I want to share this with Jeff Moden who did the important research for this calculation here.
All I did was just adapting some old code according to the mantissa finding Jeff made and optimized it a little
Some test codeDECLARE@SomeNumber FLOAT,
@BinFloat BINARY(8)
SELECT@SomeNumber = -185.6125,
@BinFloat = CAST(@SomeNumber AS BINARY(8))
SELECT@SomeNumber AS [Original],
CAST(@SomeNumber AS BINARY(8)) AS [Binary],
dbo.fnBinaryFloat2Float(CAST(@SomeNumber AS BINARY(8))) AS [Converted],
@SomeNumber - dbo.fnBinaryFloat2Float(CAST(@SomeNumber AS BINARY(8))) AS [Error]
And here is the code for the function.CREATE FUNCTION dbo.fnBinaryFloat2Float
(
@BinaryFloat BINARY(8)
)
RETURNS FLOAT
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE@Part TINYINT,
@PartValue TINYINT,
@Mask TINYINT,
@Mantissa FLOAT,
@Exponent SMALLINT,
@Bit TINYINT,
@Ln2 FLOAT,
@BigValue BIGINT
SELECT@Part = 1,
@Mantissa = 1,
@Bit = 1,
@Ln2 = LOG(2),
@BigValue = CAST(@BinaryFloat AS BIGINT),
@Exponent = (@BigValue & 0x7ff0000000000000) / EXP(52 * @Ln2)
WHILE @Part <= 8
BEGIN
SELECT@Part = @Part + 1,
@PartValue = CAST(SUBSTRING(@BinaryFloat, @Part, 1) AS TINYINT),
@Mask =CASE WHEN @Part = 2 THEN 8 ELSE 128 END
WHILE @Mask > 0
BEGIN
IF @PartValue & @Mask > 0
SET @Mantissa = @Mantissa + EXP(-@Bit * @Ln2)
SELECT@Bit = @Bit + 1,
@Mask = @Mask / 2
END
END
RETURNSIGN(@BigValue) * @Mantissa * POWER(CAST(2 AS FLOAT), @Exponent - 1023)
END
Thanks again Jeff!

have a SQL server table with a vairbale unitCost of type money and via a stored procedure I am trying to update it. Through asp I capture the value as a string and then ATTEMPT to convert it into a variable of type money before executing the stored procedure as follows.
SqlParameter parameterUnitCost= new SqlParameter("@unitCost", SqlDbType.Money,8);
parameterUnitCost.Value = unitCost;
myCommand.Parameters.Add(parameterUnitCost);
This gives me an input string error. On the other hand if I change that line to the following, the page works flawlessley:
SqlParameter parameterUnitCost= new SqlParameter("@unitCost", SqlDbType.Money,8);
parameterUnitCost.Value = 25.45;
myCommand.Parameters.Add(parameterUnitCost);
any thoughts???

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!

I have a feeling I'm missing something obvious here, but being new toSQL Server is my only excuse!I have a table that holds a variety of data. I am writing a userreport where the user wants to be able to return all data that fallsbetween a start and end date that they enter.The query should therefore be along the lines ofSELECT [some columns]FROM [my_table]WHERE [column holding date] BETWEEN [start date] AND [end date];However, the column holding the date information has been defined, forreasons best known to the designer, as a VARCHAR(10) and the data isin the format dd/mm/yy.I have tried CAST, which simply gave an error. I then tried CONVERTin the form CONVERT(datetime, [column holding date], 3) and the queryruns without error but returns no data, even though I can see there isdata that would meet the criteria in the table.Can anyone help me with a solution to this?ThanksH

Lets say I have a table named Projects with the data below.Y07001Y07002Y07003Y07010Y07011I want to pick up the last 3 numbers and add a one to it so.
Declare @Count as varchar(3)
SELECT Top 1 @Count = Right(Project, 3)+1 FROM Projects Order by ID desc
SELECT @Count
This is what I am using. It picks up the last entry, add a one to it and gives me 12 in return. What i want is 012, not 12

Hi folks,
I've have about 100 tables, for some reasons, column values that are originally NULL was inserted as emtpy string. So, I am wondering if I can write JUST ONE SQL (hopefully don't have to specify the field names in the SQL as well) for each table so that all the empty strings will be converted back to NULL.
THANKS JOHN

Hi;
I am attempting to import records from a text file.
This text file is a report file created by a mainframe routine, if this makes any difference.
When I attempt to transform the file via a VB Script it craps out when I use
the CDate(). An example of the script:
Destination("A_Date") = CDate(Source("Column1").
Some of the columns in the text file contain the string value "(Null)" and
some rows have that column containing a "01/05/06".
I have tried testing for the the string value "(Null)" but that doesn't solve my problem.
Are there any other VB functions that I could use ?
Thanks,

Hi,
When I use the folowing code, the first (green) line is executed well.
The composed SQL statement (red) gives a conversion error.
declare @vchSQL_Cmd varchar(max),
@intMaxNr int,
@vchTabelNaam varchar(255),
@vchKolomNaam varchar(255)
set @vchTabelNaam = 'CI_Lei_Toestand_DetailLijnen'
set @vchKolomNaam = 'CameraInspectieID'
select @intMaxNr = max(CI_Lei_Toestand_DetailLijnen.CameraInspectieID) from CI_Lei_Toestand_DetailLijnen
select @intMaxNr

'select @intMaxNr = max(' + @vchTabelNaam + '.' + @vchKolomNaam + ') from ' + @vchTabelNaam
select @vchSQL_Cmd
exec (@vchSQL_Cmd)
select @intMaxNr

I have been trying to read a flat file which has a birthdate field. The field is string and the format is "011594". I have been trying to convert it to a date field in the following format "01/15/1994". Using the forum I was able to write the following expression but I am still keep getting error messages.
I also noticed few records are missing birthdate and few do not have the complete birthdate which means some birthdates are missing year and some are missing month. For example, some are completely missing and some are partially missing, like " " or "0312 ". Could this be the reason I was getting error message since the following expression does not include null and incomplete date of birth?
(DT_DBDATE)(SUBSTRING([DateofBirth] ,1,2) + "/" + SUBSTRING([DateofBirth] ,3,2) + "/" + SUBSTRING([DateofBirth] ,5,2))
Here are the error messages:
[Derived Column [1014]] Error: An error occurred while attempting to perform a type cast.
[Derived Column [1014]] Error: The "component "Derived Column" (1014)" failed because error code 0xC0049064 occurred, and the error row disposition on "output column "DOB" (2292)" specifies failure on error. An error occurred on the specified object of the specified component.
[DTS.Pipeline] Error: The ProcessInput method on component "Derived Column" (1014) 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.

Hi, I'm making a webapplication in C# with MSSQL as database.
I've created a form to do an advanced search on books. The user can type in name, author, .... and he can also mark 2 dates from to Calendar objects (I made sure date one can not be bigger than date 2). I'm using smalldatetime as DBtype. The 2 selected values are DateTime in asp. The results are shown in a gridview. Since I added the feature I keep getting the same error and I can't find where it is. Here's some code:
1 public List GetBooks2(string invB,string titelB, string auteursB, string taalB, string uitgeverijB, string jaarB, string keywordsB, string categorieB, string standplaatsB, string ISBN,DateTime datum1, DateTime datum2, string sortExpression)
2 { //this is my method for the advanced search
3 using (SqlConnection oConn = new SqlConnection(_connectionString))
4 {
5 string strSql = "select * FROM Boek where 1 = 1";
6 if (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(invB)) strSql += " and (inventaris_nr like @invB)";
7 if (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(titelB)) strSql += " and (titel like @titelB)";
8 if (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(auteursB)) strSql += " and (auteurs like @auteursB)";
9 if (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(uitgeverijB)) strSql += " and (uitgeverij like @uitgeverijB)";
10 if (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(ISBN)) strSql += " and (ISBN10 like @ISBN or ISBN13 like @ISBN)";

4 while (oReader.Read()) //THIS IS WHERE THE ERROR APPEARS
5 {
6 boeken.Add(GetBoekFromReader(oReader));
7
8 }
9 return boeken;
10 }
That's the method where the error appears... Where should I place a breakpoint to get the exact location? To make sure all methods in this code are explained, here's the code for GetBoekFromReader(oReader))= 1 protected Boek GetBoekFromReader(IDataRecord oReader)
2 {
3 Boek boek = new Boek();
4 boek.idB= (int)oReader["id"];//id auto generated dus verplicht

Conversion failed when converting datetime from character string.
That's the error I get by the way. It also appears when I do a search and I don't use the date function... for example when I only fill in the title textbox and I don't select any dates from the calendars...
Sorry for the long post, but I think it's the only way to get a clear view on it...

Hi,
I am having an issue with a Report in SSRS against a Sybase db.
The dataset for the report is a Sybase stored proc which is passed a parameter (varchar). When I run the proc in Sybase it runs fine, when I run it in SSRS in the data tab it runs fine, but when I try to preview the report, or run from IE after deploying it I get the following error:
An error has occurred during report processing. (rsProcessingAborted) Get Online Help
Query execution failed for data set 'Table_1'. (rsErrorExecutingCommand) Get Online Help
The given type name was unrecognized
Looks like it is an error converting the string in SSRS to a varchar in Sybase, but I don't know how to fix it.
If I create a table with an identity (int) column and the varchar column, join this to the proc and pass the int as the parameter the report works fine!! (This is not an option in production though.)
I am using SybaseASE OLE DB Provider Version 02.70.0032
Any ideas?
TIA,
Guytz

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:

I use the derived column to convert a string date from a flat file like this: "Jan 02 2005" into a datetime.
I have seen in the forum to use: (DT_DATE)(SUBSTRING(mydate,5,2) + "-" + SUBSTRING(mydate,1,3) + "-" + SUBSTRING(mydate,8,4))
However, even if it produces a string like '02-Jan-2005', the following cast to dt_date fails.
I have also tried inverting month and day, year/month/day but all with the same result:
Derived Column [73]]
Error: The component "Derived Column" failed because error code
0xC0049064 occurred, and the error row disposition on "output column"...
I think the cast fails bacause of the month format. Therefore the only solution would be to code in in a lookup table Jan, 01 | Feb, 02 |... ????
