Hi all,
I'm trying to update a decimal field with a single decimal number (1.8) the problem i'm having, is that it's rounding the number up (2). I would've thought that a decimal datatype would keep the decimal places correct?
This is quite annoying.. I've been searching around the web for an answer.. To no avail (I'm probably asking the wrong question)
Can someone please point me in the right direction?
I am creating a table on SQL Server. One of the columns in this new table contains whole integer as wells as decimal values (i.e. 4500 0.9876). I currently have this column defined as Decimal(12,4). This adds 4 digits after the decimal point to the whole integers. Is there a data type that will have the decimal point only for decimal values and no decimal point for the whole integers?

I would like to cast (convert) data type decimal(24,4) to
decimal(21,4). I could not do this using standard casting function
CAST(@variable as decimal(21,4)) or CONVERT(decimal(21,4),@variable)
because of the following error: "Arithmetic overflow error converting
numeric to data type numeric." Is that because of possible loss of the
value?
Thanks for giving me any advice,

Hi,
The table in SQL has column Availability Decimal (8,8)
Code in c# using sqlbulkcopy trying to insert values like 0.0000, 0.9999, 29.999 into the field Availability
we tried the datatype float , but it is converting values to scientific expressions€¦(eg: 8E-05) and the values displayed in reports are scientifc expressions which is not expected
we need to store values as is
Error:
base {System.SystemException} = {"The given value of type SqlDecimal from the data source cannot be converted to type decimal of the specified target column."}

I have a field in my SQL Server 2005 database of type numeric(18,3)In code, I treat the value as decimalWhen creating my command parameters, this is how I'm declaring them:prm.SqlDbType = SqlDbType.Decimal;prm.Precision = (byte)int.Parse("18");prm.Size = int.Parse("0");prm.Scale = (byte)int.Parse("3");Inserting a number like 5.687 is rounding to 6.000 anyone know why it is doing that?
View 5 Replies View RelatedThis give me 6 digits to the right of the decimal point - can round it to 2???
CONVERT (decimal(18 , 2), 1.0 * NULLIF (vVotesR, 0) / NULLIF (vVotesR + vVotesD, 0) * 100)
I have decimal(6,2) defined in a column. If I insert 90.6, it will display 90.60 , 0 becomes .00 .
Is there a way or configuration change so the 0's will on the last will not be showing. And
the 0 will display as 0 not .00?
Thanks in advance.
Hi,
I have a decimal field in SQL Server 2000 which has a precision value of 3 and scale 1. I will be storing values ranging from 0.5 to 10.0 in there. However, in my asp.net web form, if I select the value 2.5 from the DropDownList, SQL Server stores it as 3.
Can anyone tell me why this is happening and give me some pointers on what I can do to fix it? Your help is much appreciated.
What is the best way to force a 2 digit decimal place without rounding?
For example select price*UOM returns
47.1294
3.255
.5
8
.49
What i want to be returned is
47.12
3.25
8.00
.50
.49
Thanks,

Hello I'm trying to write a SQL Statement along the lines of....
SELECT stringField + ' : ' + STR(decimalField) AS myField FROM tablename WHERE myCondition = myValue
Where stringField is a String field and decimalField is a Decimal Field in my Table.
In this statement it converts the decimal field to a string value so that it doesn't throw a conversion error but unfortunatly it seems to round up the value to an integer value and cuts off all my decimal places.
How can I get it to keep the Decimal Places?
hi all
I have a problem with SQL rounding my decimals up when I pull them from a temp table that has the column set as VARCHAR. What is happening is I am pulling the info from a flat file but each column has "" around each field so I must make the temp table columns all VARCHAR so I may pull the info from the file properly. So after the info has been extracted, I run an update statement on the temp table to remove all quotes. Once this is done, the revised info is inserted into a staging table and any field that is a represented as a decimal is labled as such in the staging table.
What I am running into is when the info is inserted into the staging table, the decimals are rounded up to whole values. The column has been checked to verify that it is indeed a decimal. I even have a CAST statement in the insert hoping to combat the rounding issue, but it is not helping.
So what reason(s) would my decimals be rounding up?
Thanks alot
I would like the
DECLARE @MyPay decimal(5,9);
SET @MyPay = 258.235543210;
SELECT CAST(@MyPay AS decimal(5,2))
This is what the resultset is currently with the code above:
258.24
I would like to Not have the value round up. I would like to always show only the first two digits to the right of the decimal and not perform any rounding.
This sounds so simple but yet don't know why it doesn't work.
i've got two decimal numbers in columns
closingUnits = 25093.53640
closingAmt = 59110.33
i use a derived column transformation to generate a string column which is the division of those two above.
mystrfield = closingAmt /closingUnits = 2.355599
what i want is cast it to just 4 decimal points when i run the expression below it cast it to 4 decimal points but it doesn't do any rounding.
the value i get is 2.3555 when i should get 2.3556
(ISNULL(closingAmt ) || closingUnits == 0) ? "0.0000" : ((closingAmt / closingUnits) < 1 && (closingAmt / closingUnits) > -1 ? "0" : "") + (DT_WSTR,15)(DT_DECIMAL,4)(closingAmt / closingUnits)
Hi There,
I'm using C# to get a value for a DOUBLE precision variable, called "Length", from a textBox using the following line:
Length = Convert.ToDouble( txtLength.Text )
I'm also using the following lines to prepare my stored procedure call:
arParms[9] = new SqlParameter("@Length", SqlDbType.Decimal, 5);
arParms[9].Value = record.Length;
My stored procedure has the following parameter definition:
@Length decimal(9,3)
My problem is that if someone types a value bigger than 999999 in the textbox he will get for sure the following error:
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Error converting data type numeric to decimal.
I don't know how to either make sql or C# to truncate the value or catch the exception to automatically assign 0 to the parameter.
Please Help.

I need to store 256 bit hash (SHA-2 alogrithmn) in one of the table'sprimary key. I would prefer to use numeric data type rather varcharetc.* Decimal datatype range is -10^38 +1 to 10^38 -1. I can split my 256bit hash into two decimal(38, 0) type columns as composite key* I can store the hash as varbinary. I never used it and don't havemuch understanding in terms of query writing complexities and dealingit through ADO (data type etc.)It would be heavy OLTP type of systems with hash based primary keyused in joins for data retrieval as well.Please provide your expert comments on this.RegardsAnil

A while since I have posted a question, and this one is probably real easy.
I am trying to store numeric values from a php form in MSSQL 2000 database. However, the columns are set to float and if the value is 1.00, when entered into the table it is saved as 1
If I change the column type to money, the query fails, with an error message of conversion of datatype varchar to datatype money statement terminated.
anybody know what I need to do? do I need to do something in my query to specify that this is NOT varchar data?
Is there a special field type I should be using, instead of a NVARCHAR for storing comma separated words?
I could, construct an array from the field value... but not sure if this would be the "right" way to do it?
I am trying to setup an indicator value for an SSRS report to show green and red values on a report, based on the NRESULT value. The problem I am facing is that I have several different CASE statements that have the same logic, and they are processing just fine. NRESULT is a decimal field, so no conversion should be necessary. I do not know why I am getting the "Arithmetic overflow error converting varchar to data type numeric." error message.
Below is the CASE statement where the error is occurring. It is in the part of the ELSE CASE. The first CASE works just fine when the ELSE CASE is commented out. If I also change the ELSE CASE statement to say "else case when LEFT(NRESULT,1) = '-' then '0'", then it processes fine, too, so it has to be something I am missing something in the check on negative values. I do need the two checks, one for positive and one for negative values, to take place.
case when LEFT(NRESULT,1) <> '-' then --This portion, for checking positive values, of the CASE statement works fine.
CASE WHEN LEFT(ROUND(NRESULT,2),4) between 0.00 and 0.49 THEN '2' --Green
ELSE CASE WHEN LEFT(ROUND(NRESULT,2),4) > 0.49 THEN '0' --Red
ELSE '3' --White
END
END
else case when LEFT(NRESULT,1) = '-' then --This portion, for checking negative values, of the CASE statement is producing the conversion error message.
[code]....
I checked the NRESULT field, and there are not any NULL values in there, either.
I would expect this query:
select
case when cast(DT as int) = cast(cast(DT as float) as int)
then 'Consistent'
else 'Inconsistent'
end
from (select cast('27 Jan 2008 13:00' as datetime) as DT) X
to always return 'Consistent'. My expectation is not satisfied; the question is, is it unfounded?
I am working with a legacy SQL server database from SQL Server 2000. I noticed that in some places that they use decimal data types, that I would normally think they should be using integer data types. Why is this does anyone know?

Hello, I heve the code below.
double prix =TextBox1.Text;
And I have SQL SERVER table Products in witch I have a column prix ( Decimal(16,4) )
But if I insert prix on my table products on the field prix. prix does not take the correct value.
For example if TextBox1.Text=19,6 , the value inserted on the field prix in the table will be 20.
Why ?
How can we insert the correct value ?
