Im trying to build myself a report that recieves a values as worded text e.g
zero zero one zero zero
it would be nice if i write some clever bit of code that would convert this to
One Hundred
Has anyone come up against this before, or could point me in the direction of a tutorial, i would appreciate it
thank you in advance

In 'MyTable' I have the following columns...
TotalNumber (numeric)
Weighting (numreric)
Hours (numeric)
Minutes (numeric)
Formula (nvarchar)
'Formula' column stores a literal string of the formula that may include some, none or all of the previous columns or be NULL.
Here are some examples of the actual strings it stores...
Weighting*Hours
Weighting+(TotalNumber*Hours)
Weighting*Hours)+(TotalNumber*2)
etc etc
All I want to do is create a UDF that will evaluate these strings as math formula and return the value depending on the values of the other columns in the row.
Bear in mind that there may not be a string formula at all for some rows, in which case the value of teh Hours column alone should be the result.
I can do this in vb using the 'Replace' function but am having difficulty in translating it over to T-SQL.
Here is the vb version i use in Ms Access...
getFormula(strDutyType As String, dblTotalNumber As Double, dblWeightingAs Double, dblHours As Double, dblMinutes As String, strFormula As Variant)
If IsNull(strFormula) Or strFormula = "" Then
getFormula = dblHours
Exit Function
End If
'Create the expression string with literal values
strExpression = Replace(strFormula, "TotalNumber", _
CStr(dblTotalNumber), , , vbTextCompare) _
strExpression = Replace(strExpression, "Weighting", _
CStr(dblPF), , ,vbTextCompare)
strExpression = Replace(strExpression, "Hours", _
CStr(dblHours), , , vbTextCompare)
strExpression = Replace(strExpression, "Minutes", _
CStr(dblMinutes), , , vbTextCompare)
'Evaluate the math of the literal expression
getFormula = Eval(strExpression)
-----------
Many Thanks
Hi guys,
I have a large text that can have some ENTER character inside of it. The problem is that the text must be inserted into a txt file in a single row. So what I need is to find those ENTER character and replace them with a space so as to have the whole string in one row.
How can I build that formula in derivide column?
Thanks for your help
Basically, I have a table with a column that stores mathematical formulas in string format. When my UDF is executed, it needs to select an appropriate formula from this table and evaluate it using values that are stored in local variables.Â
Look at the example below:
Suppose I have a string named @vcFormula that contains the following:"@dVar1 + @dVar2 / @dVar2"Now suppose I have a variable named @dVar1 that contains a value of 1.0, and variable @dVar2 contains a value of 2.5. I can use the REPLACE function to change my original string to look like this:"1.0 + 2.5 / 2.5"
Now I want to execute this string and find the numeric result, placing it in a variable named @dResult. The following works, but presents a problem:CREATE TABLE #Result (dResult decimal(20, 10))INSERT #Result EXEC('SELECT ' + @vcFormula)SELECT @dResult = dResult FROM #ResultThe problem with using this method comes from the fact that I need to be able to evaluate @vcFormula from within a user-defined function, but temporary tables are not allowed inside UDF's.Â
So I attempted to change the temporary table above into an instance of the TABLE data type. This didn't work either because EXEC cannot be used to populate instances of the TABLE data type. Then I came up with the bright idea to put the code above in a SP and call the SP from the UDF, but of course UDF's are not allowed to call SP's. Specifically, is there any way to execute a command/formula that is contained within a string other than by using EXEC?Â
Hi,I am trying to convert string entered in a field to uppercase usingits formula property.I know it can be done using trigger but still I want to use formulaproperty to achieve the same.Any help will be greatly appreciated.-Max

Some of the systems that send my BI application data, send that data in all upper case like so "JOHN DOE". We have this horrible SQL function that goes through and makes sure that the first letter in a word is always uppercase and the rest of the letters are lower case. So my results are "John Doe".
As you can imagine this is dreadfully slow when executed a couple of hundred million times, but what are my options?
I have not used Data Quality Services yet, but the chart in BOL says a DQS SSIS cleansing task can do 1 million records in 2 hours on a given set of hardware. That is still pretty horrible.
I suppose I could cobble together a Script task in SSIS, but I am pretty sure clumsy dotNet is not going to be much faster.
CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[udf_ProperCase](@UnCased varchar(max))
RETURNS varchar(max)
as
begin
declare @Reset bit;
declare @Ret varchar(max);
[Code] .....
In SQL reporting, How do I add the formula in the Formula bar?All the data is coming from a sproc.

i m a newbee in SQL. i wanted to know which is the nice book to start with? anyone got ebooks of SQL2005?
Very nice; that worked.
It seems like a lot of code for each date field, but we are up and running now.
In the SQL Object manager tools for sql server 4.21 there was a gui interface for running BCP where you could select tables and fields etc.
I haven't beem able to find abnything equivalent in sql 6.5 enterprise manager. Am I missing someting, or was this dropped?

It's rather easy to combine resultset from the same table structure...we can either insert the entries or union the results.
But let's say you select different columns from different tables and want to combine them to form a new table, how would you do it (assuming you can't join those tables since they are not related), assuming they all return the same number of rows.
select col1 from table1
go
select col2 from table2
go
Now I want to combine them so table3 is made of col1 and col2.
Here's a nice puzzle for all you masochistic programmers LOL.
Actually, it's just something that's been giving me problems and I know this forum has some amazing programmers who will probably find my problem to be easy.
I'm using 2005.
Simply put...
Here's the data:
ID Start End X
123 10 15 a
123 9 10 b
123 11 18 d
123 14 16 z
123 19 21 x
234 16 18 bb
I'd like to roll up overlapping start and end numbers into one set.
So here would be the output:
ID Start End [Ttl X]
123 9 18 4
123 19 21 1
234 16 18 1
The way I'm thinking of attacking this is maybe a combination of RowNumber & a CTE of some sort.
Please no loops or cursors, or extra tables.
Any ideas guys/gals?
Thanks a mil,

i wonder what is the best approach to use !!!i have creditLimit column in Customer Table the default value will be 500 and this limit to allow users to send sms from my website ..... every month they will be allowed to send 500 sms referring to the credit limit column.... now !!if the user sent today some sms and after few days sent another 20 and after one week he sent 150 SMS as a total so that means he has only 350 SMS as credit to use this month!!!so what is the best approach to implement this solution ? shall i have another field in the table called 'CreditUsed' and that will be updated each time the user will send SMS and this value will be compared with the credit limit ORi use the formula for the column to calculate the credit left and do the maths !!!what is the best approach as you think ???thnaks for reading this question !!

I have asked this question before in a different section of the forum without much reply, and its probably because i was asking the wrong people.
I need to calculate a qouta for an election.
SqlCommand SqlCmd1 = new SqlCommand("SELECT count(vote)FROM PRTest", SqlCon1);
int quota = (count(Vote) + 1) / ((11) + 1);
My problem is this: how to i get the count(vote) value from the Sql Statement to the formula.
This does nothing:([rush24] + [rush6] + [addLocationsTotal] + 50)
This gives me my total correctly:([rush24] + [rush6] + 50)
All column are numeric(9) except the "total" column which is numeric(13).
Why is this happening?

I have a quick question. created a report with this formula below. It works when I put a date range from 1-1-2007 to 2-1-2007, but when I put in a date range of 03-01-2008 through 03-31-2008. i get an error message of arithmetic overflow error converting numeric to data type numberic.
So instead of haveing the formula below be (4,2) I put it as (5,2) and now it work. Why is that?
CAST(clm_sppo / clm_tchg * 100 AS decimal(4, 2)) AS PercentSavings

Hi,I have three tables in the following structure (simplified):Table 1: Containing the customers-------------------------------------------------create table Customers([cusID] int identity(1, 1) not null,[cusName] varchar(25) not null)Table 2: Containing the customer data fields---------------------------------------------------------------create table Data([datID] int identity(1, 1) not null,[datName] varchar(25) not null,[datFormula] varchar(1500))Table 3: Containing the customer data values-----------------------------------------------------------------create table Values([cusID] int not null,[datID] int not null,[valValue] sql_variant)In this structure the user can add as many data fields to a customer ashe wants (e.g. Country, City, Email, Phone, ...). I have added triggerswhich create a view similar to a pivot (I am working in SQL 2000) andadd triggers to the view so it is insertable, deletable and updateable.What I would like to do, is allow the user to create new fields wherethe values are based upon a calculation. This calculation would be donethrough a formula similar to what he would do e.g. in excel (thisformula is stored in the dimFormula field then).An example might help. Let's assume the user created a field 'Sales'(containing last year's sales) and 'Invoices' (containing the number ofinvoices that were created for him last year). Now, he wants to createa field 'AvgSales' with the formula '[Sales]/[Invoices]'.(Note that through adding these data fields, the above view was created(let's assume it is called vw_Customers and contains the columns [ID],[Name], [Sales], [Invoices], [AvgSales]).What I am looking for is a function which can parse this formula into at_sql query which runs the calculation. So, the formula'[Sales]/[Invoices]' would be translated into (let's assume there areno records with NULL or zero invoices):update vw_Customersset [AvgSales] = [Sales]/[Invoices]from vw_CustomersI am able to do the above with simple calculations (where you can evenuse sql functions e.g. year, len, ...). Now I would like to take thisone step forward into the possibility of using functions with morevariables.For example. Let's assume, the user wants to add a rating (field called'Rating') to his customers based upon the result of 'AvgSales. Heenters the formula 'if([AvgSales] > 2500, 'A', 'B')'.If anyone could help me on this, I would be very grateful. Thanks.M
