Problem Using CAST With Zeroed Out Field Values

Jul 23, 2005

Hello --
I have a field with date values like: 20050714. When using SQL Server
to convert it to a Date in a View, I use the following:
CAST(MyDate as DateTime)

That works great. The problem is that some rows have the value:
00000000

When it hits one of these, I get a SQL Server Enterprise Manager Error:

Database Server: Microsoft SQL Server
Version: 08.00.0760
Runtime Error: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]The
conversion of a char data type to a datetime data type resulted in an
out-of-range datetime value.

Is there a workaround for this? Any assistance greatly appreciated.

Few Zeroed Pages And Outdated Backup

Jan 17, 2007

Greetings.

I've got some (standard?) data corruption issue with quite large SQL database (~8GB). Our RAID10 crashed recently with no chances to restore our database from backup (backup copies were saved on the same disk array weekly (complete backup) - quite a dumb idea and very good lesson, I must admit it).
We managed to get almost all data back from our disks and I attached databases at another server. Today I used DBCC CHECKDB which found like 15 corrupt pages in single _very_ large user table (~4GB):

Server: Msg 8909, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Table error: Object ID 0, index ID 0, page ID (1:39664). The PageId in the page header = (0:0).
....
(etc, ~15 times with different page numbers)

DBCC PAGE displayed that they were just filled with 0 (I guess they resided on those few unlucky disk sectors, data recovering company was unable to read).

I restored most recent backup (like 1 week old) to another database and checked these pages again (and few that were before & after them), they were just fine and the pages before and after were the same exactly.

Well... Here is my Big Question :)

Is there any chance I can get these pages from restored database and just write them over my corrupted data with some tool?
I have no idea how to locate the offset of these pages inside .MDF file at this moment.

Can someone help me with it? This place seems like my last hope...

Thanks in advance.

P.S. I'm trying to avoid dropping these pages in any possible way, they contain... uhh, sort of financial information.

Conditionalize Field Values Based On Other Field Values

Apr 17, 2007

Here's a portion of the current statement.

UPDATE EngagementAuditAreas

SET numDeterminationLevelTypeId = parent.numDeterminationLevelTypeId,

numInherentRiskID = parent.numInherentRiskID,

numControlRiskID = parent.numControlRiskID,

numCombinedRiskID = parent.numCombinedRiskID,

numApproachTypeId = parent.numApproachTypeId,

bInherentRiskIsAffirmed = 0,

bControlRiskIsAffirmed = 0,

bCombinedRiskIsAffirmed = 0,

bApproachTypeIsAffirmed = 0,

bCommentsIsAffirmed = 0

FROM EngagementAuditAreas WITH(NOLOCK) ...

And what I need is to conditionalize the values of the "IsAffirmed" fields by looking at their corresponding "num" fields. Something like this (which doesn't work).

UPDATE EngagementAuditAreas

SET numDeterminationLevelTypeId = parent.numDeterminationLevelTypeId,

numInherentRiskID = parent.numInherentRiskID,

numControlRiskID = parent.numControlRiskID,

numCombinedRiskID = parent.numCombinedRiskID,

numApproachTypeId = parent.numApproachTypeId,

bInherentRiskIsAffirmed = (numInherentRiskID IS NULL),

bControlRiskIsAffirmed = (numControlRiskID IS NULL),

bCombinedRiskIsAffirmed = (numCombinedRiskID IS NULL),

bApproachTypeIsAffirmed = (numApproachTypeID IS NULL),

bCommentsIsAffirmed = (parent.txtComments IS NULL)

FROM EngagementAuditAreas WITH(NOLOCK)

Thanks.

How Can I Cast A Money Field In A View To Look Like Money

Oct 16, 2007

I 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.

Transact SQL :: Only Allow Certain Values In A Field

Nov 16, 2015

I can not modify DDL of the table, so creating a trigger etc is not an option.  This is my syntax that I am using, and each #Testing.abcd has different possible options.  

For example, when #Testing.abcd = Test1 then #Data.field2
okay values are 'Yes', 'No', 'Maybe', but for #Testing.abcd = Test3 then #Data.field2 okay values are 'Follow-Up', 'Contact Requested'

How can I set-up "acceptable values" for one field, but different based off abcd in my syntax?

Declare abcd varchar(100), @sql varchar(1000)
Create Table #Testing (abcd varchar(100), efgh varchar(500)
Insert Into #Testing Values
('Test1', 'zzz'),
('Test2', 'xxx'),

[Code] ....

Replacing Field Values

Oct 9, 2007

I am trying to replace field values in SSIS. For exapmle, I have 'unkown' and 'N/A', and a few other values that mean the same thing, and I want to give all these fields the same value. I have not been able to find a tool in the toolbox to make this type of change. Is there one? And, if there is, do you know a link to a page explaining its use?

The closest I have come is the Derived column String Transformation:Replace. But, I have not been able to get this to do what I want. If you know of a good reference explaining this tool's use I'd appreciate it.

thanks much,

Insert Multiple Values Into One Field

Jul 24, 2006

i can't believe my situation is unique, but my searches for answers have proven fruitless, so please bear with me.i have a date field in my database, and have previously used a simple textbox to allow users to insert a date.  i want to make this a little step a little nicer, however, and have added a dropdown for the month, a textbox for the date (i'm not "good" enough to dynamically change this around for a dropdown list), and a dropdown list for the next few years.what "insert" statement would allow me to accomplish this?  what i currently have doesn't blow up, but neither does it actually insert anything.  here's my statment:<asp:SqlDataSource ID="sdsVersion" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:DB %>"    InsertCommand="INSERT INTO [Version] ([Major], [Minor], [Sub], [Rev], [Date]) VALUES (@Major, @Minor, @Sub, @Rev, @Month + '-' + @Day + '-' + @Year)">    <InsertParameters>        <asp:Parameter Name="Major" Type="Int32" />        <asp:Parameter Name="Minor" Type="Int32" />        <asp:Parameter Name="Sub" Type="Int32" />        <asp:Parameter Name="Rev" Type="Int32" />        <asp:ControlParameter ControlID="ddlMonths" Name="Month" PropertyName="SelectedValue" Type="Int32" />        <asp:ControlParameter ControlID="tbDate" Name="Day" PropertyName="Text" Type="Int32" />        <asp:ControlParameter ControlID="ddlYears" Name="Year" PropertyName="SelectedValue" Type="Int32" />    </InsertParameters></asp:SqlDataSource>

Merging Field Values From With Inner Join?

Apr 1, 2008

Hello Experts,
Been struggling with this issue all morning and beginning to get a headache.  Essentialy my problem is this.  I have a gridview control that ive bound to datasource where the select statement is using an inner join to retrieve textual info from one table in refernce to an object_id contained within both. i.e
SelectCommand="SELECT 'multiple fields from both tables'FROM ZCRMTAB_ACTIVITY INNER JOIN ZCRMTAB_ACT_LOG ON ZCRMTAB_ACT_LOG.OBJECT_ID = ZCRMTAB_ACTIVITY.OBJECT_ID WHERE (ZCRMTAB_ACTIVITY.REF_CUST_NO = @REF_CUST_NO) ORDER BY ZCRMTAB_ACTIVITY.CREATED_AT DESC">
<SelectParameters><asp:QueryStringParameter Name="fieldName" QueryStringField="value" Type="String" />
My problem is that this returns individual row results and are displayed on individual lines.  Where the object_id is the same i want all the textual info to be displayed within the same row.
Does anyone know how i can accomplish this?
Thanks in advance

Creating New Field With Default Values...

Nov 7, 2007

I am creating a new filed in SQL Server 2005, and I want the field to have the default of '0'

I select the data type as numeric and save my changes, I then visit our front end database to see if the default value is just '0' but it appears as '0.00'

SO i thought about changing the default value to int (im thinking this means integer?) and changing it to '3' but it still displays the decimal point and two 0's

Am I doing something wrong here? I just want it to display '0'

Thanks

Show 0 Values If The Field Is NULL

I want to show 0, if the field contains NULL values.
I use the following expression.


=IIf(Fields!MTD_TotGrossBKCOAmt.Value = "NULL" , SUM(Fields!MTD_TotGrossBKCOAmt.Value), 0 )


But this works if the field contains only NULL values.
If it has a value, then it shows as #Error

Can anyone tell me how to make this work?

the goal is to read through a field and format it so if a field looks like this 12xxx111xx I can change it to look like 12-xxx-111-xx.
Any help is greatly apprecaited

How To Insert Null Values Into A DataBase Field

May 9, 2005

I have a function that updates a table in sql server
If a field is left blank I want the database field set to Null. I use:sqlCmd.Parameter.Add("@somefield, someintvalue) to pass all my values to the database.
if someintvalue is null I want to set @somefield to dbnull
How can I do this? I get errors if I submit a null integer when there is a foreign key constraint. What is the best way to handle this? should I just make all parameters objects? so that I can set them to DBNull.Value?
Also on a side note, when you are populating fields from a datatable, is there a better way to set the values (i.e. of a textbox) than cheking for DBNull before assigning?

Is there anyway I can write a squl query on these two rows which outputs column names which are having unique values.
I would appreciate If anybody gives me hint about achieving desired result
