Dear Experts,Ok, I hate to ask such a seemingly dumb question, but I'vealready spent far too much time on this. More that Iwould care to admit.In Sql server, how do I simply change a character into a number??????In Oracle, it is:select to_number(20.55)from dualTO_NUMBER(20.55)----------------20.55And we are on with our lives.In sql server, using the Northwinds database:SELECTr.regionid,STR(r.regionid,7,2) as a_string,CONVERT(numeric, STR(r.regionid,7,2)) as a_number,cast ( STR(r.regionid) as int ) as cast_to_numberFROM REGION R1 1.00112 2.00223 3.00334 4.0044SELECTr.regionid,STR(r.regionid,7,2) as a_string,CONVERT(numeric, STR(r.regionid,7,2) ) as a_number,cast (STR(r.regionid,7,2) as numeric ) as cast_to_numberFROM REGION R1 1.00112 2.00223 3.00334 4.0044Str converts from number to string in one motion.Isn't there a simple function in Sql Server to convertfrom string to number?What is the secret?Thanks
I have a report I am creating in sql reporting services 2005 and what I am trying to do is have a single text box with multiple lines of data format each item in the textbox to specific parameters but I have not been able to figure it out. I tried to format my data on the sql side so that it cam out as follows:
tried Monday, Nov. 26, 2007 "Color = Blue FontWeight = Bold " & John Doe & CHAR(9) & "Color = Red FontWeight = Normal " & Jane Smith & CHAR(9) & "Color = Black FontWeight = Bold" John Roberts This did not work
so then I tried Monday, Nov. 26, 2007 "FontColor = Blue FontWeight = Bold " & John Doe & CHAR(9) & "FontColor = Red FontWeight = Normal " & Jane Smith & CHAR(9) & "FontColor = Black FontWeight = Bold" John Roberts
Still did not work What my end result needs to be in a single text box... Monday, Nov. 26, 2007 John Doe Jane Smith John Roberts
If anyone has the answer thanks ahead of time. Mike
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 imported a table into SQL Server from a legacy program. Each record has a repeating sequence of similar fields. (Ex. Accnt1, Assesed1, Paid1, Accnt2, Assesed2, Paid2, etc.) I would like to take a single record and put data from these fields into a table that has the columns Accnt, Assesed, and Paid. I am doing this for easier use in a program I am developing in VB 2005. Can this be done in SQL or do I need to have help from some VB code? If it's possible, what might the SQL look like?
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.
how to convert float to timestamp in single select query..for exp. i have float as 1.251152515236 ,i want to convert this to datetime and from datetime to timestamp... i.e. 26:11:00
SELECT 'Type'[Type] ,CASE WHEN code='09' THEN SUM(Amt/100) ELSE 0 END ,CASE WHEN code='10' THEN SUM(Amt/100) ELSE 0 END ,CASE WHEN code='11' THEN SUM(Amt/100) ELSE 0 END ,CASE WHEN code='12' THEN SUM(Amt/100) ELSE 0 END FROM Table1 WHERE (Code BETWEEN '09' AND '12') GROUP BY Code
and the output
Column 1 Column 2 Column 3 Column 4 Type 14022731.60 0.00 0.00 0.00 Type 0.00 4749072.19 0.00 0.00 Type 0.00 0.00 149214.04 0.00 Type 0.00 0.00 0.00 792210.10
How can I modify the query to come up with output below,
Scenario is like that single dept can have multiple LocationHeads, If Location heads are multiple then they should display in single column using *starting the name as mentioned bottom under required output.
Below is sample of data:
create table #Temp(depID int, Name varchar(50),LocationHead varchar(50)) insert into #temp values(1,'test','head1') insert into #temp values(1,'test','head2') insert into #temp values(1,'test','head3') insert into #temp values(2,'test1','head1') insert into #temp values(2,'test1','head2')
Required output
depID Name LocationHead 1test *head1,*head2,*head3 2test1 *head1,*head2
i am trying to add a single quote to a string. This is a must because i am making a full select statement in which i need the single quote to compare values. Obviously this breaks my string invalidating my query.
ej:
SELECT avg(tabla.ip_trend_value) as valor, FLOOR(Cast(tabla.ip_trend_time AS FLOAT)) as tiempo FROM TESTLAB5.dbo.CE02_L21_916AI31_43 tabla, TESTLAB5.dbo.CE02_L21_916XI31_4 t2 WHERE t2.ip_trend_value = 'Alimentacion Digestores' and t2.ip_trend_time = tabla.ip_trend_time group by FLOOR(Cast(tabla.ip_trend_time AS FLOAT))
and this will become something like this.
SELECT @TableName = 'TESTLAB5.dbo.'+@TableName SELECT @SQL = 'SELECT avg(tabla.ip_trend_value), FLOOR(Cast(tabla.ip_trend_time AS FLOAT)) FROM ' SELECT @SQL = @SQL + @TableName SELECT @SQL = @SQL + ' tabla, TESTLAB5.dbo.CE02_L21_916XI31_4 t2' SELECT @SQL = @SQL + ' WHERE t2.ip_trend_value = '@NombreVar'and t2.ip_trend_time = tabla.ip_trend_time' SELECT @SQL = @SQL + ' group by FLOOR(Cast(ip_trend_time AS FLOAT))'
the @NombreVar is the equivalence of 'Alimentacion Digestores'.
is there something i can add or change to make it work ?
My code results in SQL statements like the following one - and it gives an error because of the extra single-quotes in 'it's great': UPDATE Comments SET Comment='it's great' WHERE UserID='joe' AND GameID='503' Here's the error I get when I try this code in SQL Server: Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Line 1Incorrect syntax near 's'.Msg 105, Level 15, State 1, Line 1Unclosed quotation mark after the character string ''. I need to know how I can insert a string such as 'it's great' - how do I deal with the extra quotes issue? is there a way to ecape it like this 'it/'s great' ? This doesn't seem to work. Here's the code that generates the SQL. I'm using a FCKeditor box instead of a TextBox, but I got the same error when I was using the TextBox: string strUpdate = "UPDATE Comments SET Comment='";strUpdate = strUpdate + FCKeditor1.Value;//strUpdate = strUpdate + ThisUserCommentTextBox.Text;strUpdate = strUpdate + "' WHERE UserID='";strUpdate = strUpdate + (string)Session["UserID"];strUpdate = strUpdate + "'";strUpdate = strUpdate + " AND GameID='";strUpdate = strUpdate + Request.QueryString["GameID"];strUpdate = strUpdate + "'"; SqlConnection myConnection = new SqlConnection(...);SqlCommand myCommand = new SqlCommand(strUpdate, myConnection); try{myCommand.Connection.Open();myCommand.ExecuteNonQuery();}catch (SqlException ex){ErrorLabel.Text = "Error: " + ex.Message; }finally{myCommand.Connection.Close();}
I'm using SQL Server 2005 and ASP.NET 2.0 Much thanks
I'm constructing a SQL string that needs single quotes in the WHERE clause. How do I encapsulate them in a string variable. I looked into ESCAPE and SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER, but i don't really see any examples using string Concatenation. I'm trying to filter out the zls (0 length strings)
Hello, I would like to know if it is possible to add comments from different columns from table in sql into a single column. Please, see the attached table. I want all comments to be in one column. The outcome should be: CONFIRMED NEED TO CONFIRM SIGNER AT <CR><LF> received e-mail:<CR><LF> Called Imran again today to see if .
Ideally, I would like to receive all comments in a single string of characters, perhaps separating the comments by <CR><LF>
Here is the table. Sorry my table doesnt look good, but it has the following fields: DATE, LEXNEX_DECISION, COMMENT
DATE LEXNEX_DECISIONCOMMENT 4/3/2007COMPLETECONFIRMED NEED TO CONFIRM SIGNER AT 4/3/2007COMPLETEreceived e-mail: 4/3/2007COMPLETECalled Imran again today to see if .
How do I get a single quote (') in a NVARCHAR string in MS SQL Server?e.g. SELECT @strsql = "SELECT * FROM tblTest WHERE Field1 Like 'blah''Obviously this is invalid as the single quote before "blah" would end thevarchar string.How do I get round this?
When users enter text into a textbox, to be INSERTed into my table, SQL Server throws an error if their text contains a single quote. For example, if they enter "It's great!" then it causes this error:Error: Incorrect syntax near 's'. Unclosed quotation mark after the character string ''. How can I allow text with single quotes to be inserted into the table?
Hello. I'm wondering how I CONVERT or CAST a column of type TEXT to INT with T-SQL ?
Also, is there anyway to catch an error in a Stored Procedure. For example if you try to convert a CHAR column to INT when the column has an 'a' in it, can I try to convert and if it did't work I do something else ? Or is there a way to check if a column has only numbers ?
Thanks for any help, the CONVERT Text to Int is the most urgent ...

I have an image data type in a table (it is a digital signature) and one of my users wants me to search the image data and see how many people have a certain attribute in their digital signature. I know the image data is HEX, but how, in query analyzer, can I view it as the XML digital signature data that it really is? So, how can I convert hex to text in sql server?
How to retrieve all possible sets of values from a table, with each set having a unique identifier.
Here's sample data, where any number of rows can be in the "animal" set:
select animal.name from ( select 'Cat' as name union all select 'Dog' union all select 'Bird' ) animalHere's what I'm trying to get:
[Code] ....
It'd be an easy task if I knew how many rows were in the set, but without knowing how many (and being able to do x number of cross joins and CUBE/ROLLUP to produce the list of permutations) or writing a horrid complex of while loops, I'm at a loss.
A single column. All permutations of the values in a single column. Perhaps I should stay off here nearer the end of the day .
I have a program which feeds back information to a table within my database. The annoying thing is that only 1 of the table cells has all of the information I need so essentially I have a large string of data I need to retrieve values from.I retrieve my cell with a simple select details from alerts where ID = (alert number).The results I have are as follows:
As you can see I have a list (its larger but this is a sample), the only thing I need are the values for each section so for last processed i want the 2911 so I can use it on my dashboard and the last received I want the 10 for that section.i have read about using substrings but am really not sure where to start and how I'd go about getting these values to then use elsewhere?
