Hi guys,
Can anybody tell how to raise an error for a datatype datatime and numeric.txs in advance
Need to know if the varchar datatype field will ingore leading zeros when compared with numeric datatype ?
create table #temp
(
code varchar(4) null,
id int not null
)
insert into #temp
[Code] .....
Good afternoon,
I have an issue with an ssis variable datatype.
The scenario is as follows:
I have a stored procedure:
PROCEDURE [dbo].[sp_newTransaction]
@sourceSystem varchar(50),
@txOut NUMERIC(18,0) OUTPUT
AS
insert into scn_transaction (sourceSystemName) values(@sourceSystem);
SELECT @txOut = @@identity
Whose purpose is to perform an insert into a table and return me the identity value of the inserted record, which I'll then use throughout the rest of my package. The identity column in the inserted table is numeric(18,0).
I execute the stored proc with the following sql with an OLE DB connection manager:
exec sp_newTransaction ?, ?
The first parameter is a string variable from earlier in the package, and the second is the output parameter. I have the following parameter mappings to the execute sql task:
User:ystxId output numeric 1 -1
User:ourceSys input varchar 0 -1
The proc is correctly called, and the row insesrted, however I get a type conversion error when SSIS attempts to map the return parameter to my package variable... I've tried all sorts of combonations, and can't seem to get it to execute.
At one point I wasn't returning a numeric, but rather an int from the stored proc, and all was well until I went to use the variable in a derived column later in the package, and the type was converted quite incorrectly (a 1 was 77799789080 or some such), indicating a type conversion error likely related to the encoding of the number.
I'd like to keep the datatypes as numeric and make ssis use those - any pointers are greatly appreciated as to what type my package variable should be to allow proper assignment of a sql server numeric type to it.
Thanks much,

Database is SQL Server 2000
I have a field in a table that stores date of birth. The field's datatype is char(6) and looks like this: 091703 (mmddyy). I want to convert this value to a datetime datatype.
What is the syntax to convert char(6) to datetime?
Thank you in advance.
I'm designing a database that will not be that large (I would be surprised if it ever surpassed 50,000 rows across all tables), but will be accessed quite often, so I am doing my best to optimize its structure, such as doing 3NF, selecting appropriate data types, etc.
I have a few columns that will contain numeric data (such as an invoice number (from an external source) or location ID). However, one of my classes in college was about database design, and we were taught that if you won't be doing mathmatic computation on a field (such as the invoice or location fields I mentioned earlier), then you should use a string literal type (char, varchar, etc.)
Unfortunatly, the professor did not explain much as to why this should be done. From the standpoint of semantic analysis, these types of fields are probably more labels than they are numbers. However, I don't find that very convincing (or even helpful).
In short, my question is that given a column holding numeric data that isn't worked on in a mathematical sense, is it really better to mark it as a string literal than a number? Any articles or studies I can read relating to this?
I would think that comparisons would be faster with int, as well as data storage (though, as mentioned, that's not as big of a concern). Sadly, Google doesn't have many helpful resources. (Lots of stuff on char vs varchar, though.)
Hi,
I read the topic from JROdden and this case is similiar but...
I got several varchar fields with
values like
1.2
1.3
... these I can covert with
select CONVERT(dec(5,2), fieldname) as fieldname
In fact I also solved undefined- and NULL-values with.
CONVERT(decimal(12, 2), CASE WHEN GESCHKOSTMAX IS NULL OR
GESCHKOSTMAX < '0' THEN '0' ELSE GESCHKOSTMAX END) as GESCHKOSTMAX,
But now there are values like
1,4 and these ones neither CONVERT nor CAST will handle.
I tried the
SELECT DISTINCT KMPAUSCHALE
FROM extr_INTFIRMA
WHERE (isnumeric(KMPAUSCHALE) = 1)
and get
0,40
0.25
0.30 and so on...
The error is:
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Driver][SQL Server]Error converting datatype varchar to decimal. (or float or numeric (whatever I tried))
I think the easiest way would be to insist on higher data quality but
I also would like to solve this interesting challenge.
Thanks for any hints
By the way, I followed rudys link to
http://rudy.ca/afdb.html
and now I know how I could protect myself !!!!
There must be a voice in my head saying:
Try the db-forum, try it and stay happy... ;-)
best regards and have fun with new year eve.

I would like to determine the largest numeric datatype scale of a column.

2222.0023455
Hello,
I have to develop a package to get some data from a 10g Oracle database and load it to a SQL Server 2005 database.
In my design I used Oracle Provider for OledDB as my source provider following Microsoft recommendations found here : http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb332055.aspx
As I have to use a parametrized query against my Oracle database I create a variable with my query that I override at runtime with a script task to update the parameters values.
One of the return column is of numeric datatype.
To handle this known issue with Oracle sources I edited through the advanced editor my Oledb source component to manually correct the precision.
Everything works fine with one of my package.
So I repeat the whole process while designing an other one with the same purposes.
As for the previous one I first unit test every components and everything works. But when running the full package it raised an error code 0x80004005 Error while validating post executing phase of the component (sorry for the poor translation from french to english ...)
I open my dataflow where the component is and found no warnings or errors. I edited through the advanced editor my Oledb source component and found that there's an error on the precision scale of the numeric return column. The message warn me that the precision must be between 1 and 38.
I checked this column and in the "OLE DB Source output / External Columns" the precision is 0 though I previously manually corrected it.
I upadted again for a 18 precision as it is for this column in "OLE DB Source output / Output Columns".
But it never keeps my changes ......
I delete the component and recreate it to force the metadata to be updated but always the same thing, the precision scale for this column in the "OLE DB Source output / External Columns" never keeps my 18 value.
Does someone have any clues to help me ?
Thanks a lot.

Have imported a file from AS400 into SQL and get the Date numeric as yyyymmdd.
How do I get is as a Datetime.
Example:
Delivery Date 20011201 (numeric)
Hi,
I have a tsql problem where I have two tables both with a field called DateTime. In one table the DateTime is numeric(13) and in the other table the DateTime is varchar(13).
First table has:- (processjobs)
ProductName DateTime
EAC1ST19200707170700
EAC1ST26200507241035
MDM1ST17200707170308
Second Table has:- (productionplanlist)
ProductName DateTime
NFY1ST20200707191448
NHS1ST18200707171053
NHS1ST25200707241036
EAC1ST26200607241035
I need to compare the two tables matching on ProductName and then if the date of the productionplanlist is more recent then it needs to replace the date with the date from the processjobs table. So the newer date is always in the processjobs table.
I have tried the following but i think i am getting the cast into a bit of a twist somewhere.
UPDATE processjobs
SET proc.datetime = prod.datetime
WHERE (cast(prod.datetime as datetime) >= cast(proc.datetime as datetime) and (proc.productname = prod.productname)
FROM processjobs proc, productionplanlist prod
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Hello,
I have a column called 'FileDate' that is NUMERIC (18,0). The format is YMMDD. A sample of March 1st and 2nd, 2008:
80301
80302
Is there a way to convert/cast this to DateTime or SmallDateTime?
Thank you for your help!

I would like to know if there was any semantic differences between the two following statements?
RAISERROR('Invalid argument.',11,1);
RETURN;
or simply
RAISERROR('Invalid argument.',11,1) WITH NOWAIT;
It seems that both statements interrupt the current transaction.
Does anyone has an idea on the subject?
Thanks in advance,

hi everyone..!!
how can I turn an attribute date of type numeric of a table and pass it to another table (using SSIS) as datetime
Hi all.
I'm using foxpro and I'm completely new to SQL. I'm trying to create a database into which I need to enter a time field. I've read around on the net that the only way to do this is using a datetime datatype but I can't find anywhere that explains the format I use to INSERT INTO my tables.
Anyone help?
*EDIT* I actually just want to enter the time and not the date and the time, I have read it is possible to do this using a convert but I'm happy enough to have the date and the time as I don't want to overcomplicate anything at this stage.
i've used datetime to store my date and when i read from the database, it displays 12:00:00am as well!..is there any datatype i can use?

What is the special way of dealing with the datetime datatype for these purposes?
Hello!
Here's the puzzle I'm trying to solve.
I have 2 columns (CreatedDate and StatusDate) in the table both of datetime datatype.
When I run query
select * from sale
where Statusadate = "11/30/2001" it returns rows back.
When I do the same but for CreatedDate column
select * from sale
where CreatedDate="11/30/2001" it returns zero rows back even if there are CreatedDates = "11/30/2001".
I don't understand why it works for one column and doesn't work for another one.
The example of CreatedDate value is "2001-11-30 10:10:33.000"
Thank you,

When is select datatype as datetime for a column
hi everybody,
i'm trying to calculate the 'SUM' of time spent in hrs. n min. How can i do this using SQL Server?
What i mean is, i've a column 'TIME_SPENT' that has 'datetime' datatype. This column saves time spent for an activity in format 'hh:mm'. Suppose a user spends 45min for activity 'A' and say 1hr 25 min for activity 'B' then i want to calculate the 'SUM' of 'TIME_SPENT' for the user which should appear as 'Total time spent =2:10'
Can somebody pls help me with this?
Thnx in advance.
hi! can anybody pls. help me...is it posible for my 'date' column with datetime datatype to contain date only..without the date? any inputs will be greatly appreciated!!

For some reason, I recall having read that SQL Server 2005 would supporta datatype that represented date, but not time. (This would be usefulfor storing things like birthday, where you usually don't care about thetime of day). But I've got SQL Server 2005 installed, and there's nosuch datatype to be found.Is this something that might be released in a Service Pack, or is itjust not going to happen?

so plz Guide me. or if u know how to write it then plz write here
i already use cast for it but it doesn't work.
so plz reply urgently.
This question is about selecting datatypes for database fields and related performance and operational benefits.
When creating a database in SQL Server, there are many datatypes that can be assigned to each of the fields.
Below is a example table:
ROOMAS (id, roomsLabel, price, roomName, roomPhone, dateAssigned, userID, roomWidth, roomLength)
Scenario I: Make the id an int datatype, and all of the other fields a varchar datatype.
Scenario II: Make the id an int datatype, and choose various datatypes based on what the field is, e.g. DateTime, int, float, long, varchar
What are the differences in performance between the two scenarios, if any? How does the database engine differ in behavior for both scenarios?
All data is coming from the Presentation tier in the form of a String. By using the varchar type for all fields, there is a reduced level of conversion errors and less conversion code in the business objects.
Thanks.
