Problems Converting Nvarchar To Numeric
Jun 23, 2008
Hi all
I want to pass a list of nvarchar characters to my procedure, then import them into a temporary table as numeric(5,2) numbers.
The code below does this but the values are corrupted (e.g. 76.25 becomes 7 in the table).
Can anyone please tell me what I'm doing wrong? Thank you!
declare @separator_position int
declare @array_value nvarchar
declare @separator char
DECLARE @numberList NVARCHAR(MAX)
SET @numberList = '23|76.25|100.36|45.54|87.14|74.25|8|98|'
SET @separator = '|'
SET @separator_position = NULL
SET @array_value = NULL
DECLARE @myTable TABLE(ID INT IDENTITY(1,1), compLevel NUMERIC(5,2))
WHILE patindex('%' + @separator + '%', @numberList) <> 0
BEGIN
SELECT @separator_position = patindex('%' + @separator + '%' , @numberList)
SELECT @array_value = LEFT(@numberList, @separator_position - 1)
INSERT INTO @myTable (compLevel) VALUES (CONVERT(NUMERIC(5,2), @array_value))
SELECT @numberList = stuff(@numberList, 1, @separator_position, '')
END
SELECT * FROM @myTable

Hi,
I used to work with Sql 2000 and I could easily import a text file into my database and then convert the fields (all nvarchar) to appropriate data types. However, this procedure does not work with Sql 2005.
After I import a text file to Sql 2005 and when I convert nvarchar to numeric, I get "Error converting data type nvarchar to numeric".
Could you please let me know how can I fix this issue. Thanks in advance for your reply.

I am using MS SQL Server 2008R2 along with VB 2010.The first question is: why is it even trying to convert anything to numeric? I have NO numeric data types. And I don't have any nvarchar data types either. I'm very confused.Doesn't nchar include any and all characters, in any combination? Should I change everything to text data type? Maybe something else? Some values are going to be blank. The Lab/Source Lots have numbers, letters and dashes.
My stored procedure:
ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.MChemsInsert
(
@LabLot nchar(10),
@Chem nchar(50),
@Source nchar(50),
@SourceLot nchar(10),
[code]....

When I run the following sql query:
"update table set price = price * 1.1 "..
I get the following error : "Msg 8115, Level 16, State 8, Line 1.. Arithmetic overflow error converting nvarchar to data type numeric. The statement has been terminated."
The table is set to nvarchar, and i am just trying to make the prices go up 10%.

when I run below query I got Error of Arithmetic overflow error converting numeric to data type numeric
declare @a numeric(16,4)
set @a=99362600999900.0000
The 99362600999900 value before numeric is 14 and variable that i declared is of 16 length. Then why this error is coming ? When I set Length 18 then error removed.

Guys
I'm getting the above when trying to populate a variable. The values in question are :
@N = 21
@SumXY = -1303765191530058.2251000000
@SumXSumY = -5338556963168643.7875000000
When I run, SELECT (@N * @SumXY) - (@SumXSumY * @SumXSumY) in QA I get the result OK which is -28500190448996439680147097583285.072256 ie 32 places to left of decimal and 6 to the right
When I try the following ie to populate a variable with that value I get the error -
SELECT R2Top = (@N * @SumXY) - (@SumXSumY * @SumXSumY)@R2Top is NUMERIC (38, 10)
Any ideas ??

We have an address table with a house_num field which is a nvarchar.
Most of house numbers are numbers like 1234, 0989
But some of them have a letter behind it like 678 B, 8909 F, even some like this 123/B
We would like to remove any non-numeric letter for this column.
Is there a way to do it?

Hello all,
I'm trying to convert a nvarchar datatype to int
(ie:1234-56-78 to 12345678) . These values are primary keys in two tables. Both these tables have 3500 rows of this key type. I want to convert this to a int so I can make it a AutoNumber primary key so I can increment it. Is this possible? If so, how do I do it. Do I need to delete the dashes first some how? I fairly new to database adminstration, so any guidance will be greatly appreciated.
Thank You

If a Select is done on a column whose data type is nvarchar(16) and contains only numerals (UPC numbers) the select does not return the record.
1. Query with numerals in nvarchar column works as long as multiple records are returned (LIKE '012%')
2. Numeric (INT only one tested) columns works as expected
3. String columns with alpha data works as expected
4. Problem only exist when running in Device Emulator and/or actual device.
5. Same test on desktop app runs as expected.
6. Windows Mobile 6, Vista Ultimate
7. Same results when when connection to device from SSMS
8. SQL Servers comes on
Previous thread discussion of this problem (I thought that Parameters corrected problem, but not in all cases???)
http://www.microsoft.com/communities/newsgroups/en-us/default.aspx?dg=microsoft.public.sqlserver.ce&mid=0cd9cd3a-f9b0-477f-b1e7-c27eb76158ae
Here is the complete code:
SqlCeConnection _conn = null;
_conn = new SqlCeConnection(@"Data Source=program FilesTestResultSetevsoft.sdf;");
_conn.Open();
// DOES NOT WORK *** This statement does not return the record (it exist)
string _sql = "SELECT * FROM Product where RegDescr='0123456' ";
// works correctly
string _sql = "SELECT * FROM PRODUCT where ProdNum = 6523 ";
// works correctly *** as long as multiple records are returned
string _sql = "SELECT * FROM PRODUCT where RegDescr LIKE '01%' ";
// works correctly
string _sql = "SELECT * FROM PRODUCT where RegDescr='BACARDI SILVER RAZZ'";
SqlCeCommand _cmd = _conn.CreateCommand();
SqlCeDataReader _rdr;
_cmd.CommandText = _sql;
_cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text;
// Same results using ExecuteResultSet or ExecuteReader
//_rdr = _cmd.ExecuteResultSet(ResultSetOptions.Scrollable | ResultSetOptions.Updatable);
_rdr = _cmd.ExecuteReader();
listBox1.Items.Add("In the while loop");
while (_rdr.Read())
{
listBox1.Items.Add(_rdr.GetValue(1) + " / " + _rdr.GetValue(3));
}
listBox1.Items.Add("Done");

I 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

I am unfamiliar with the built-in functions in SQL Server. I would like to display a numeric
field with leading zeros. In oracle the sql stmt would be:
SELECT TO_CHAR(amt,'000000')
FROM table_x;
Thus, the number 35 would be returned as 000035.
Is there a way to do this in SQL Server?
Thanks.

Im running a DTS package that converts data in a fixed width text file to SQL table. The package runs successfully, but when I go to dump 60,000+ records in the table I get this error:

Is there a way that I can isolate where the offending values are located so I can manually correct them?

One of my clients decided to put letters into their customers' account numbers. They have a numbering scheme where all temporary accounts have a letter in the account OR are numbered greater than 33000, and all permanent accounts are all digits and less than or equal to 33000. all primary accounts have a NumberSuffix of 000.
Now i am tasked with retrieving all primary, non-temp accounts. I cannot simply do WHERE Number <= 33000 because when it gets to an account containing a letter like "00A01", it craps out and says "Conversion failed when converting the nvarchar value '00A01' to data type int."
So decided to run a filtering query first to filter out all accounts with letters, and then from that dataset select all accounts <=33000.
WITH members (FirstName, LastName, Number, NumberSuffix) AS
(
SELECT
dbo.Entity.FirstName,
dbo.Entity.LastName,
dbo.Entity.Number,
dbo.Entity.NumberSuffix
FROM
dbo.Entity
WHERE
NumberSuffix = 000 AND
Number NOT LIKE '%A%' AND
Number NOT LIKE '%B%' AND
Number NOT LIKE '%C%' AND
Number NOT LIKE '%D%' AND
Number NOT LIKE '%E%' AND
Number NOT LIKE '%F%' AND
Number NOT LIKE '%G%' AND
Number NOT LIKE '%H%' AND
Number NOT LIKE '%I%' AND
Number NOT LIKE '%J%'
)
SELECT *
FROM
members
WHERE
Number <= 33000
ORDER BY
Number
when i do this, i get the same error for some reason. Yet when i execute this at the end instead:
SELECT *
FROM
members
WHERE
Number LIKE '%A%'
ORDER BY
Number
i get an empty set (meaning it actually does get filtered).
but somehow it still able to participate in a range comparison?
WHY??
thanks,
Leon
