May 5, 2015In a t-sql 2012 select statement, I have a query that looks like the following:
SELECTÂ CAST(ROUND(SUM([ABSCNT]), 1) AS NUMERIC(24,1)) from table1.
The field called [ABSCNT] is declared as a double. I would like to know how to return a number like 009.99 from the query. I would basically like to have the following:
1. 2 leading zeroes (basically I want 3 numbers displayed before the decimal point)
2. the number before the decimal point to always display even if the value is 0, and
3. 2 digits after the decimal point.
Thus can you show me the sql that I can use to meet my goal?
Converting Int To Fixed Length Char With Leading Zeroes
May 25, 1999Hello All,
Can someone tell me how (in SQL) to convert an integer to a fixed length character filled with leading zeros. For example, I have an integer value of '125'. My user wants to see it displayed as '00000125'. How do I get the zeroes to fill in to a char(8) field when the length of the value differs, ie. '1', '125', '3452', etc.
Thanks in advance,
Terry
SQL 2012 :: Leading Zeroes Substring Query In Server
Mar 16, 2015Padding leading zeroes for the months in End date
Example: actual data is like
6222007
,11301998
in end date column the following query works fine for 11301998 and converts it as 19981130 which was correct.
But 6222007
fails because month has no leading zero and it converts it as 0076222 which is wrong.
How can i make it as 20070622 with the following code
select (case when replace (ltrim(rtrim(ltrim([end date]))), '|', '') in ('99999999','00000000') then NULL
else substring ([END DATE],5,4)+SUBSTRING([END DATE],1,2)+SUBSTRING([END DATE],3,2) end) as ConvEnd_date

Integration Services :: SSIS Is Removing Leading Zeroes From 6 Character Time String?
May 29, 2015I am using SSIS 2012 SP1 to import a comma delimited csv file into a SQL table.
One of the fields carries a time value:
Source = textfile, column=DT_STR(8), value format = "hhmmss", e.g. "011525"
Destination = field in SQL table, data type = time(0)
To get it from the textfile to the SQL table I am:
1.) Creating a derived column called [d_Time of Entry]with the following formula -
SUBSTRING([Time of Entry],1,2) + ":" + SUBSTRING([Time of Entry],3,2) + ":" + SUBSTRING([Time of Entry],5,2)
2.) Performing a data conversion task to convert [d_Time of Entry] from DT_STR(8) to time(0) The upload fails because values that start with a zero, i.e. times before 10am, have their leading 0's stripped before being derived. You can see this because "011525" is derived as "11:52:5" when it should be "01:15:25".
Transact SQL :: Use Print Function To Output Numeric Variable With Fixed Amount Of Leading Zeroes
Apr 23, 2015I need to create an output from a T-SQL query that picks a numeric variable and uses the print function to output with leading zeroes if it is less than three characters long when converted to string. Â For example if the variable is 12 the output should be 012 and if the variable is 3 the output should be 003.
Presently the syntax I am using is PRINT STR(@CLUSTER,3) .  But if @CLUSTER which is numeric is less than three characters I get spaces in front.
Remove Trailing Zeroes From Result Set
Jan 31, 2008
I have a column of type Decimal(14, 4) in my SQL server 2005 database.
When producing the result set on this column, i need to convert the values to varchar datatype and also i do not want the trailing zeroes to be displayed.
For eg:
If the value stored is 98.7500, my select query should provide an output of 98.75.
Similarly if the value stored is 98.0000, my select query should output 98.
I tried converting the value to "float" and then assigning to varchar data, however doing so i am incurring precision loss in some scenarios
See below:
Declare @ele as varchar(25)
Select @ele = Convert(float, 99999.9990)
select @ele
Output I received: 100000
Output I wanted: 99999.999
Are there any in-built functions in SQL to achieve what I need?

Preserve Leading And Trailing White Spaces On Report
Dec 27, 2007I spent huge amount of time figuring out how to preserve lading and trailing white spaces on report display without success. Can anyone help me here?
My problem is I have data with leading and or trailing white spaces and I need to show it as is. In designer preview it shows correct values. As soon as report is published and accessed on web, it truncates the whitespaces . I had a look at source, it shows values are correctly fetched(with spaces) but are ignored while rendering. I also tried replacing blank space with , however it reads this as  .

Using Query Parameter When Data Cell Has Leading Spaces
Feb 21, 2008
In SQL Reporting I want the user to pass a parameter to the report; the parameter is a employee number. Easy right, you write a where statement like where table_name.employee_number =@employee_number. When the user runs the report they€™re asked to type in the number.
My problem is the dB stores the employee number with leading spaces padding the number out to 9, so if the user types in 1 they get jack, but if they type in €˜ 1€™ they get the right employee. I can€™t roll it out that way
I€™d do something in the where clause so the user could just type in 1 & it would auto pad out to 9 spaces. I€™ve tried using the €˜LIKE€™ clause & I€™ve tried using concatenate but so far neither works well.
I'd appreciate any advice
Thanks -- Vince

View 1 Replies View RelatedHow To Remove Blank Spaces In Records??
Jun 23, 2005We imported approximately 2.9 million records from our mainframe server
into our SQL Server but have run into a problem. The data in a
few of the fields contains both leading and trailing spaces. An
example of the data would be like this, using periods to represent
spaces:
What we have:
..1A02938.....
What we need:
1A02938 (no spaces)
Is there some sort of algorithm I can run on the data to remove
those spaces? The problem is coming up when trying to perform a
SELECT query. We try something like:
SELECT * FROM PCPIPT0 WHERE PANO20 = "1A02938" but we get zero
results because of the spaces in the database. The datatype of
the filed is char(20) because we need some flexibility on the size of
the data stored.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Remove Alpha Chars && All Spaces In Field [UPDATED]
Apr 5, 2007Hello,
I need to strip out all alpha chars and spaces in a given field and return only the numbers.
I've tried =CInt(Fields!Info.Value) and get an unexplained error. If the data was formatted consitantly I could simply do a RTrim or Right, but the number strings are not the same, some have spaces as in phone numbers (1 800 555 1212) or don't have a leading 1. Most instances are correct for my purpose (8005551212).
Any help would be appreciated.
UPDATE: Using the Replace function =Replace(Fields!Info.Value, " ","") gets me almost there. Now I should be able to use a Right, 10 function to return my desired value. Is it possible to combine these two funtions together?

Preappending Zeroes
Apr 13, 2006Hi ,
Sorry for those that think this is obvious but I have tried for good time and cannot solve this problem in a simple way.
How can I append a 0 in the form of varchar to a 1 with datatype integer
What Im trying to do is add an alternate column to the identity column in my table.
The identityt collumn seeds in 0 all the way up with increments of 1.
ie 0,1,2,...,n
howver, I need that for the values below 10 a zero is preapended
ie
01,02,03,...,09, and then the sequence continues normally, ie 10,11,...,n. I am trying to preapend the zeroes to the mentioned dinumbers in the new calculated column I created without success.
this is what I would like tot do
select IdentityCoulmn,('0'+ IdentityCoulmn) as CalculatedCoulumn
from MyTable
but its not working the result comes out the same ie 1,2..n
thank you
Padding Zeroes To An Int
Jan 18, 2008Hi,
I need a simpler way of doing this:
I've a number column which I need to show as a 3 digit field in a string:
Example:
number =1; string = 010
number =10; string =100
is there any function that can do this string manipulation?
Currently I'm using a CASE statement to check the length of this number column,
if its single digit I use:
SUBSTRING(('0' + CONVERT(VARCHAR,CONVERT(INT,ISNULL(D.Number,E.Number)))+'0'),1,3)
else I use
CONVERT(VARCHAR,CONVERT(INT,ISNULL(D.Number,E.Number)))+'0')
Is there a better way of doing this?
Thanks,
