Uploading Text And Numeric Data From An Excel File
Nov 3, 2006Hi,
I have found a problem with my SSIS package. The package takes a Excel File using the Excel Source/Excel connection manager objects. There's a Data Conversion Object which sets all the fields to be DT_STR and then I import the data into a Holding table using a OLEDB Destination Object.
My Excel file contains a list of Code/Description pairs. The problem I have is that I can have data such as the following
CODE
A101
A102
A103
12
1.2i
What seems to be happening is that when the data is imported into the holding table and the first rows are Alphanumeric then the fields where there's a code such as 12 get converted to NULL for some reason. If all the codes are the same type (either Alphanumeric or numericit doesn't matter, as long as they are all the same) the import works perfectly well.
I need to be able to import all of these codes without SSIS converting some to NULL. Has anyone come across this problem before? If so, is there something I am doing wrong or a workaround?
Many thanks in advance

View 1 Replies View RelatedConverting Text To Numeric
Jul 23, 2004I have a database table with 2 numeric fields. The values to be inserted into these fields come from text boxes in an ASP.NET page. So in the parameters to add into these fields I simply use 'textbox1.text' & textbox2.text'.
One of the fields accepts the data within the text box and adds it into the appropriate numeric data field in the table. However on the other text box I get an error message 'Error converting data type nvarchar to numeric.'
Does anyone know why this occurs just on the one entry and not the other?, and if anyone has any suggestions on how to get around this please let me know.
Many Thanks

Power Pivot :: Converting Text String To Numeric Value
Jun 11, 2015I have a column that I'm trying to call into a calculated measure to determine an expected contract amount (Terms in Month). The problem is that some of the terms are defined as text strings (MTM, Coterminous, One-time) while others are numbers (12, 36, etc). The entire column is recognized as text. I have a numeric value that management has agreed would be an acceptable substitution (MTM=1, Coterminous=6) and so on. I can't however, figure out how to convert those texts to a number since they are different data types. I've tried a nested IF statement, as well as a LOOKUPVALUE..I'm doing this in Power Pivot, so am limited to DAX formulas

System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Error Converting Data Type Numeric To Decimal.
Aug 31, 2004Hi There,
I'm using C# to get a value for a DOUBLE precision variable, called "Length", from a textBox using the following line:
Length = Convert.ToDouble( txtLength.Text )
I'm also using the following lines to prepare my stored procedure call:
arParms[9] = new SqlParameter("@Length", SqlDbType.Decimal, 5);
arParms[9].Value = record.Length;
My stored procedure has the following parameter definition:
@Length decimal(9,3)
My problem is that if someone types a value bigger than 999999 in the textbox he will get for sure the following error:
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Error converting data type numeric to decimal.
I don't know how to either make sql or C# to truncate the value or catch the exception to automatically assign 0 to the parameter.
Please Help.

Using Numeric Data
Sep 7, 2004The data type in the table is decimal with a precision set to 19 and a scale set to 2 and nothing for the default value.
I need to use updates or inserts that will allow a value of nothing or null to be inserted.
UPDATE TableName SET fldAmount = '' WHERE fldIssue = 'ABC'
But this fails because of the amount field.
This statement works, but is not good for me because 0 is not accurate.
UPDATE TableName SET fldAmount = '0' WHERE fldIssue = 'ABC'
How can I insert nothing?
Thanks

May 29, 2007Hi,
I have a lot of decimals in the flat files. So far the largest numbers map to a numeric(18,6).
My question is, is DT_NUMERIC the correct datatype for this data? In which case, what size do I need to set it? Right now it's 18. Couldn't find much info on this.
Thanks
Numeric Representation Of Data
Feb 25, 2007In MS Access, for numeric fields, the decimal places shown can be defined as "Auto" meaning that the database will determine the number of decimal places to show based on the content of the field (i.e. 1.0, 0.75, 1.125).
In SQL Server for the same field, it appears that decimal precision is hard coded resulting in a fixed representation (i.e. 1.000, 0.750, 1.125)
Is there a way to make the decimal representation in SQL Server more like Access where trailing zeros are truncated?
Numeric Data Column And Insert From ASP.NET
Dec 15, 2005I am trying to insert some values into a table where the column is of the data type "numeric". The insert works fine.Update does not work.
Update BUT_BREAKDOWN_PCT SET BDP_EFFORT_BREAKDOWN_PCT=0.15 WHERE BDP_BREAKDOWN_ID =1 AND BDP_PHASE_ID = 3 AND BDP_START_EFF_DT = '12/31/2004'
BDP_EFFORT_BREAKDOWN_PCT is a numeric column with a size 5 (4,3)
When I do the updatedirectly from QA, it works fine.
I was googling it and read a KB article saying it's a problem with Service Pack of SQL Server 2000. If it is, then the query should not work even from QA....isn't it?
Anyone had this problem before? Please help.

How Decimal And Numeric Data Types Work
Jul 26, 2013On the Microsoft website, I am trying to understand the how the decimal and numeric data types work. It says that valid values for precision are:
- 10^38 +1 through 10^38 - 1
I don't understand the purpose of the negative sign before the first 10.I understand that decimal (p,s) refers to haing a total of p digits (before and after the decimal) and only s number of digits to the right of the decimal. How does the equation above relate to the 's' portion of the syntax?
