How To Add Comma To Alphanumeric Numbers In Text
Jul 18, 2013
I have a text where it is mix up of all alphanumeric values... For example like this
ACETAMINOPHEN 250 MG ASPIRIN65 MG CAFFEINE
ACER NEGUNDO POLLEN0.0021 G/ML ACER RUBRUM POLLEN0.0021 G/ML ACER SACCHARINUM POLLEN0.0021 G/ML ACER SACCHARUM POLLEN
So my requirement is i need to add comma (,) before every number value in this text.The text is different from each other.But main one what ever the number is there need to add comma before that one (decimal,numeric etc)
ACETAMINOPHEN,250 MG ASPIRIN,65 MG CAFFEINE
ACER NEGUNDO POLLEN,0.0021 G/ML ACER RUBRUM POLLEN,0.0021 G/ML ACER SACCHARINUM POLLEN,0.0021 G/ML ACER SACCHARUM POLLEN

Hi, I need to search a column in my database (varchar:50) that contains a comma delimited string of numbers (i.e. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 10). Currently, I am doing the following SQL query:
SELECT * FROM people WHERE clubs_belongs_to LIKE '%1%'
Where 1 is the number I'm searching for. The problem with the query above is that it returns records that contain 1, 10, 11, 12, 13, etc. in the clubs_belongs_to field. I want the query to only return those people who belong to club number 1, not 10, 11, 12, etc. Please help. Thanks in advance. I have tried using IN instead of LIKE, but that didn't seem to get the results I wanted either.

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'm trying to write data to excel from an ssis component to a excel destination.
Even thought I'm writing numerics, every cell gets this error with a green tag:
Convert numbers stored as text to numbers
Excel Cells were all pre-formated to accounting 2 decimal, and if i manually type the exact data Im sending it formats just fine.
I'm hearing this a common problem -
On another project I was able to find a workaround for the web based version of excel, by writing this to the top of the file:
<style>.text { mso-number-format:@; } </style>
is there anything I can pre-set in excel (cells are already formated) or write to my file so that numerics are seen as numerics and not text.
Maybe some setting in my write drivers - using sql servers excel destination.
So close.. Thanks for any help or information.

I wanted to convert a dataset from vb.net (2.0) to an .XLS file, by MS Jet. My national standard is using decimal commas, not decimal points for numbers signing the beginning of decimal places.
But the MS Jet Engine uses decimal point,in default. Therefore, in the Excel file only string formatted cells can welcome this data, not number formatted.
How can I solve or get around this problem? (with jet if it possible)

Hi,On SQLServer 2000, I have a table with a following structure:MYTABLEcol1 char,col2 date,col3 numberMy Objective:------------Externally (from a command line), to select all columns and write theoutput into a file delimited by a comma.My method:---------1. Probably will use OSQL or BCP to do this.2. Use the following syntax:select RTRIM(col1) +','+ RTRIM(col2) +','+ RTRIM(col3)from MYTABLE;My 3 Problems:-------------1) If there is a NULL column, the result of concatenating any value withNULL, is NULL. How can I work around this? I still want to record thiscolumn as null. Something like say from the example above, if col2 isnull, would result to: APPLE,,52) The time format when querying the database is: 2003-06-24 15:10:20.However, on the file, the data becomes: 24 JUN 2003 3:10PM. How can Ipreserve the YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS format? Notice that I also lost theSS.3) Which utility is better? BCP or OSQL?For OSQL, it has a "-s" flag which gives me the option of putting acolumn separator. But the result is:"APPLE ,14 JUN 2003 , 5"I don't need the extra space.While for BCP, there is no column separator flag.You will notice from my inquiry above that my background in SQLServer isnot very good.Thanks in Advance!!RegardsRicky*** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com ***Don't just participate in USENET...get rewarded for it!

I have run into a problem when searching for a Movie title that is a number (like the movie name 21)
This is an access database and the Movie_Name is a text field
The SQL I am using is
Select * from Movie_Data where Movie_Title = ‘” & Movie_Name & “’”
This works perfectly for everything except when the Movie_Name = a number
Is there a way to make this search work with both characters and numbers?

Does Full text search have problems with numbers?
I have a text field in a table that has been full text indexed. Some of the data in some of the fields start with numbers.
For Example
"123p45 the bla bla bla"
When I run a standard SELECT statement on LIKE '%p4%' it returns the above record.
If I run a full text query using CONTAINS(fieldname,'"*p4*"') it returns nothing.
After much head banging I was able to get the CONTAINS to work when I used *123p4*
I figured since there are alpha characters after the p4 the second * works however since there are no preceeding alpha characters before the p4 it fails.
I would like to be able to do a "full text" search for the "p4" and get the record above.
Any feedback would be appreciated..

Hi All
I am working on a query to get all the datetime values in a column in a table into a comma separated text.

Hi,Please can you let me know the best solution for creating a primary key which automatically increments by 1 each time a record is added. My current Primary key is of type "Int" which increments by 1 each time, but I would like my primary key to contain "ABC" before the 1. So each time a record is added I would like to see:-ABC000001 ABC000002ABC000003Etc, EtcI am using SQL Server 2000 and creating an ASP.Net application, will I need to write code in a Stored Procedure to do this?Regards,Brett

Hi all,
I'm having an issue with data from an OLE DB source being converted from numeric [DT_R8] to text when I export it to Excel. I had the column in the spreadsheet formatted as Numeric, but when I set it up as the data destination, it is showing in SSIS as [DT_WSTR].
The SSIS job runs OK, it just converts my numeric data to text in the spreadsheet. I'm surprised that the job actually runs, since I have to do explicit data conversions for my OLE DB string data in order to convert it to unicode. From what I have read elsewhere, the decision was made in SSIS not to use implicit data conversion, but to require explicit conversion. Yet this export is converting my numeric data to text.
I would appreciate any information on how to set up the Excel Destination to properly handle numeric information.

Hi. Im new to SQL and I need to export a SQL table as a comma delimited text file which is straight forward. However two of the fields are integers and I need these to be right justified with zero's.
In Access I would use something like format(columnname, "00000000") to get it to work, but SQL Server doesn't like this.
How can I do this?

I am trying to use several tables that have one 10-character text field in
common. Most of the records have a numeric expression, but some tables have leading
0's, and some don't.
I can't cast the field to numbers because there are some records that have
letters also.
What function can I use to get rid of all the 0s at the left of each record?
(Sort of a LTRIM function that gets rid of 0s instead of spaces).
Thanks!

Hi,
I am getting an error when I try to insert a number typed in a text box control into a Sql database table column’s type numeric(6,2). For example: If I type 35,22 into the text box, or 35, and then I submit the form to insert the data into database, I get the follow error:
System.FormatException: Input string was not in a correct format.
Line 428: CmdInsert.Parameters.Add(New SqlParameter("@Measure", SqlDbType.decimal, "Measure"))
A piece of the SP inside Sql server:
USE market26
GO
ALTER PROC new_offer
@Offer_id bigint, @Measure numeric(6,2) = null, …
What is wrong? Why it doesn’ t accept the number typed in my text box?
Thank you,

i have an excel sheet
in it there is a column that holds values of item numbers
some of these values are preceeded with zeros E.G "00123" (with out the ")
when i view the data in excel i get this little green corner whice states (when pressed) that these values are numbers stoerd as text.
no inside the excel sheet i have no problem with that
but when i try to import the excel sheet into ssis using an excel source task
all these values are imported as nulls!!!
i am lost
i tried converting the format of these cells to numbers but then i loose the leading zeros
what i done temporarly to solve this problem is to accept excel's suggestion and turn these values into numbers
i then import them and convert them to strings in ssis and then ad dthe zeros.
now althouge this works, this isnt realy a solution.
i canot manualy correct each excel file each time i get a new copy
and in the future i will not have the luxuery of having fixed lenght values (so i wont be able to know how many zeroe i"d need to add)
there must be a better way
please help

I have a report with a column which contains either a string such as "N/A" or a number such as 12. A user exports the report to Excel. In Excel the numbers are formatted as text.
I already tried to set the value as CDbl which returns error for the cells containing a string.
The requirement is to export the column to Excel with the numbers formatted as numbers and the strings such as "N/A' in the same column as string.
Any suggestions?

Slow loading issue with an if statement. In the raw data the field [Location] is a text field e.g. 0010. I have a parameterised query that get a Location_Value from Excel and passes it to the PQ query using:
#"Filtered Rows1" = Table.SelectRows(#"Removed Other Columns", each ([SalesMode] = 0) and ([SalesType] = 0) and ([Location] = Location_Value))
This works fine if you chose a single location. However I wanted to be able to select all locations and text is horrible to work with so in PQ I used the change type function to change the location column into whole numbers. I changed excel to also pass a number as Location_Value. I was therefore surprised when the same query took 2.5 times longer to refresh????
My PQ now looks like this
#"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Removed Other Columns",{{"Location", Int64.Type}}),
#"Filtered Rows1" = Table.SelectRows(#"Changed Type", each ([SalesMode] = 0) and ([SalesType] = 0) and ([Location] = Location_Value))
I'm wondering if I need to do something to the ([Location] = Location_Value) bit as maybe it still thinks [Loation] is text and it is trying to compare it to a number. I st assumed the step above meant that [Location] was now a number, but maybe you still have wrap it with some kind of VALUES or TEXT function?

It does not matter what type of number it is as long as they are different. Can someone point me somewhere with a piece of T-SQL that I could use to do that.

I have a file which contains comma separated columns. One of columns contains names of companies. Sometimes the names of the companies have a comma as part of the name. For those, the value is surrounded by double-quotes.
But it seems that SSIS ignores the double quotes and ONLY looks for the column separator. This causes my value to be split in half.
Traditionally, I thought parsers that deal with this type of import do not automatically take the first comma following the double-quote as the column separator but instead look for the first comma following the ending quote. (i.e. Look at how Excel performs imports...)
I cannot set the column separator of the column to double-quote comma since only those values that HAVE a comma in them are qualified.
Any ideas?
Here is sample fie content to see what I mean:
342123, Jason, 12345
21, Kim,4567
32.43, John Paul, 1245
23, "Mr. T", 98764
12, "Peter, Paul, Mary", 09643
The last entry should be imported as 12 in the first column, "Peter, Paul, Mary" in the second column and 09643 in the third but instead ends up as 12 in the first, "Peter in second column and Paul, Mary", 09643 in the last.
(Oddly enough, if I remove the first column of numbers the import works like it is supposed.)
