How to set Money datatype decimal field with example .
Hi,
The default number of decimal points for 'money' data type is 4. Can I change it as 6?
Eg 120.123456
Thanks!
What is the difference between Money and (Float or Decimal) Datatype. If we use Float or Decimal instead of Money, will we loose any functions..?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a field in a database which is a datatype Money. When I run a select query the data is coming back with 4 decimal places like 100.0000 but I only want 2 decimal places like 100.00.
Anyone know how to get this?

I have a table in SQL 2005 with a field that has a value of type 'money'. When values are added, the field has 4 decimal places. Is there a way that I can make it only have 2 decimal places right away? Thanks!!!
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a special need in a view for a money column to look like money and still be a money datatype. So I need it to look like $100.00 (prefered) or 100.00(can make work).
If I convert like this '$' + CONVERT (NVARCHAR(12), dbo.tblpayments.Amount, 1) it is now a nvarchar and will not work for me.
How can I cast so it is still money? by default the entries look like 100.0000.
They must remain a money datatype.
Could someone explain to me what the best practices are for using these three data types? (i.e. when to use them). I thought this would be a simple answer to find, but after looking through books on line, and this forum, I have still not found the answer. Can anyone help?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a table with a money field that had previously been running calculation and storing the data into the database's money field. Since this field supports 4 decimal places, it was storing 4 decimal places worth of data. I have since cleaned up my insert routine to round everything up to two decimal places and it only inserts the rounded values. I now have to go back and update the old data with the two decimal place rule. How would I go about doing this?

15.1456 ================ 15.15
4.1328 ================== 4.13
5.16 =================== 5.16
What significant difference is there between the two data types when we are indeed dealing with monetary values (other than being able to set the precision and scale)?
Is there a performance gain from one over the other? Are there administrative-related concerns that should force someone to choose one over the other? Are there any concerns of the MONEY data type being sunsetted by Microsoft anytime in the near future?
Can someone please help me out here?
[EDIT]
I was referring to "fields" in the first sentence when it should've been "data types".

Hi
I have an SQL search that is converting two values to type money. I want it to show two digits after the decimal point but am getting inconsistent results. The first value is as follows:
tblInventoryItem.itemcost as originalcost (the column is datatype money)
This displays correctly i.e. 2000.00 or 150.70 etc
The second value is this:
tblInventoryItem.itemcost + tblUpgrades.ItemCost as totalcostincupgr (both columns are datatype money)
But this displays as 2000 or 150.7
How can I get the second value to show two decimal places even when the digits are zeros?
Thanks!
Please i need to display the money column in DataBase in an asp.net page but i get something like this 786.0000 how can i format it so that i get something like 786.00
Thanx
Greetings,
How do you keep or round a money datatype to use only 2 decimal places? I have an instance where I am multiplying a money with a decimal datatype. The decimal has up to 8 decimal places. This is causing the money datattype to extend to 4 decimal places. This makes for problems when I am comparing 2 values.
ex.)
IF 14.88 >= 14.8821
99% of the time this does not happen, but is causing problems. Does anyone have any suggestions?
thanks in advance,
Roger
Do you usually use the money or smallmoney datatype for US dollars in a table, or do you use a decimal datatype, and if so which. Any opinions on the advantages and disadvantages of each?
If you use money or smallmoney, do you usually add a constraint to make sure the value is even to the penny (no $24.3487 type amounts)?

How do I format the money or float field types to 2 decimal places during a SELECT statement?

I am running Microsoft SQL Server 2012.
I had created a database named "Company-Data" that contains a table named "tblStock". This table contains several columns such as ID, Product, Quantity. The datatype for the column "Quantity" is INT.
I had entered 100 records to the table, now I want to change the datatype for the column "Quantity" from INT to MONEY.
How can we do this without loosing the data that has been entered the the column previously.

Hi,
I have a column ,Lines decimal(10,2).
The data in this column is not properly displayed in crystal reports.
Eg: the data in the column is 24.34, it's being displayed like 345234352
Why this is so? When the data type is int, there's no problem. Because of this I'm not able to display decimals in my report. Which data type in sql server is apt for my task.
Please help.
Thanks

I have looked at the SQL Docs, and am trying to create a test table that uses a column of Numeric Datatype. But for some reason, it is rounding to the nearest Integer as opposed to using a decimal value.
Heres the SQL I use to create the table:
CREATE TABLE Test (ID int IDENTITY(1,1), Test_Numeric numeric(2,0))
dont laugh if its obvious, cause I dont use decimal values very much :P
Good Morning
Shopping for a bit of assistance with the decimal datatype in a SQL Server 7.0 database. I am sending data with 2 decimal places from a
VB6 program to the databse table and the decimal positions are getting cut-off. IE .10 is turning into 0. I have the field in my databse table
defined as decimal, 5 long and a precision of 2. Any ideas what I am doing wrong?
Thanks for the help,

I am using sql express 2005 and sql server 2005 with C# 2.0.
I am a bit confused about which data type i should be using for several fields.
Right now I am declaring all of my fields in sql server as float for everything except for money fields which are using money.
When loaded into C# these fields are converted to double and decimal because C# does not have a float datatype.
Should I be using Decimal or Double for everything instead?
Here are a few examples
QtyInvoiced (float) - holds the number of items invoice
possible values look like this 1.0, 1.25 or 1.5
PercentDiscount (float) - holds a percentage
possible values look like this
10.25, 20.50, 50.00
I appreciate the help.
Happy Friday!
A while since I have posted a question, and this one is probably real easy.
I am trying to store numeric values from a php form in MSSQL 2000 database. However, the columns are set to float and if the value is 1.00, when entered into the table it is saved as 1
If I change the column type to money, the query fails, with an error message of conversion of datatype varchar to datatype money statement terminated.
anybody know what I need to do? do I need to do something in my query to specify that this is NOT varchar data?
Hi guys,
Presently I have a column which represents the amount of money someone spent and for some reason, the fields are being outputted like this 29.8600.
This field is infact suppose to 29.86. Now initially this file was an excel spread sheet and I imported it into sql server 2000 and the datatype is money. What would i use to get the desired field.
Hi All,
Here is a description of the issue I'm facing about decimal datatype conversion from DB2 to SSIS throught Microsoft OLE DB Provider for DB2.
I first discovered it when I tried to use a LookUp trans. and selected a decimal typed field. I was unable to validate it and clicking the OK button threw the error copied below:
TITLE: Microsoft Visual Studio
------------------------------
Error at Data Flow Task [DTS.Pipeline]: The "output column "MFIXFRA" (317)" has a value set for length, precision, scale, or code page that is a value other than zero, but the data type requires the value to be zero.
------------------------------
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
Exception from HRESULT: 0xC0204019 (Microsoft.SqlServer.DTSPipelineWrap)
------------------------------
BUTTONS:
OK
------------------------------
Some workarounds on this issue led me to two other strange behaviours:
- If I create a dataflow task to perform a raw copy of a DB2 table to a brand new table in SQLServer destination (by clicking "new" instead of choosing an existing destination table), generated "create table" script for decimal fields is quite different from source table. For example, a source field declared Dec(15,2) is translated as Dec(29,5), and so on.
- Quite same behaviour if I try to derive a column using as derived column trans. If the source column is a decimal, it's scale and precision are interpreted ramdomly.
Any idea welcome

I am trying to insert 1000000.00 into my sql table from a webpage. I as long as the amount is 999.99 or less it works fine, once higher then that amount it gives me an error.
Below is the code I am using to do the insert, it gets the error on the insert and the update both:
I am getting the error on the price inserting the FormatCurrency(txtprice.Text)
SelectStatement = "Insert crewchief (crewchief, price, car_num) Select '" & txtcrewchief.Text & "', " & FormatCurrency(txtprice.Text) & ", '" & txtcarnum.Text & "'"
Adapter.SelectCommand = New SqlClient.SqlCommand(SelectStatement, myConnection)
MyCommandBuilder = New SqlClient.SqlCommandBuilder(Adapter)
Adapter.Fill(MatcherDS, "temp")
Any ideas on why?
Thank you
I have a text column in my database with values simular to the below
00000000-505
000000018500
0000000-4495
I need to convert them by removing all leading zeros, determining if the value is negative (-), and inserting the decimal points.
Example:
00000000-505 -> -$5.05
000000018500 -> $185.00
0000000-4495 -> -$44.95
How can I create a trigger to do this for me, when the data is imported; or should I make a stored procedure to run when when I import the data. This data is found in a text file that is imported to the table daily. Any suggestions and or help would be greatly appriciated.

If I pull a value from a MSSQL field with is defined as money, how can I get it to display in a textbox with commas and NO decimals?
87000.0000 = 87,000
I can currently remove the decimals like below but is there a way to add the commas as well?
decRevenue = drMyData("Revenue")
txtRevenue.Text = decRevenue.ToString("f0")
It current shows "87000".
Hello,
I am updating three fields (defined as decimal(18,4) NULL) in
a 1.7 million record table to 0.
This table is also very wide (meaning lot of columns). A simple
query like this -
Update Table1
Set [Decimal Field1] = 0,
[Decimal Field2] = 0,
[Decimal Field3] = 0
is taking forever (1+ hours) to run.
Either I may be doing something stupid here or I am missing
something vital.
Thanks for any help.
Hi,
I have a decimal field in SQL Server 2000 which has a precision value of 3 and scale 1. I will be storing values ranging from 0.5 to 10.0 in there. However, in my asp.net web form, if I select the value 2.5 from the DropDownList, SQL Server stores it as 3.
Can anyone tell me why this is happening and give me some pointers on what I can do to fix it? Your help is much appreciated.
Hello Everyone,
Here is my situation.
I have a field in a table (named QuestionPosition)(type Decimal) that contains values like this:
1 2 3 4 5.1 5.2 5.3 ...
I want to have another field in the same table that stores just the remainder (in the above case a 0 for integer values and the 1 of the 5.1, 2 of the 5.2 etc.
I created the field in the table (named QuestionSubPosition) and tried to set the formula for it to QuestionPosition % 1 but it does not accept the formula.
The part that i do not understand is that i can set the formula to QuestionPosition / 1 it works (but not the results i want).
Any ideas on how i can get the results i want?
