SQL Server 2012 :: Converting Varchar To Datetime?
Mar 19, 2015
I am using a custom sql query to import data into Tableau. Problem is I need to change the varchar column data in SQL currently returning 18/01/2014 08:35:13 as a format into the date format 05/21/2014 3:55:51 PM before I can use it.
Within in Visual Studio 2012 solution, I have several projects, one of which is a Database project. I am defining several tables. The one in question is:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[tblKppHierarchyPcl] ( [ID] NUMERIC(18,0) NOT NULL, [Name] VARCHAR(500), [PartStructureKey] NUMERIC(18,0) NOT NULL, [PartNumber] VARCHAR(500) NOT NULL, [ParentPartNumber] VARCHAR(500) NULL,
[code]...
Error SQL72014: .Net SqlClient Data Provider: Msg 245, Level 16, State 1, Line 76 Conversion.failed when converting the varchar value 'Coolant Quick Disconnect' to data type int.So it has a problem with inserting 'Coolant Quick Disconnect' into the Name column. The Name column is CLEARLY a varchar column but somehow it thinks it's an int column.
I'm facing a small issue with date conversions. It would have been great if someone could help me out. I have a field in my database (SQL Server 2000) called SavDateTime of type varchar(50). I store dates in this field in the format "dd/MM/yy hh:mms". A sample date would be "23/10/2007 10:15:30 AM". Now I need to have an order by for this field, say like,
select * from sample order by SavDateTime desc
When I execute this query I get an error saying "The conversion of a char data type to a datetime data type resulted in an out-of-range datetime value.". I tried using the convert method also like CONVERT(DATETIME,SavDateTime,103), but the problem still exists. It would have been helpful if you could provide me with a solution to this problem.
I have a column name DateofRecord and it is nvarchar type..all the values in this column are like this
"04/24/2013' "05/01/2014"...etc...
My requirement is to convert this column into Datetime ?
I tried so many ways using cast and convert functions like cast(dateofrecord,datetime) or like convert(datetime,replace(DateofRecord,'"','''')) ..it didnt worked..
I am doing a Case statement to create a unified field for account type and vendor, in the code below I am receiving the error in the subject, because the account numbers have alpha characters in the string, I need to make them as OTHER if the first 2 left chars are Alpha, I thought how I have ISNUMERIC would do that but I am still getting the error.
I am also including example of how the account_numbers are formatted.
Am converting varchar field to float and summing using group by and next inserting to varchar field(table).
while inserting float value it is converting to exponential ex:1.04177e+006 but if i execute only select statment actual float value will get display ex:1041765.726
My question is why it is converting while inserting ? and how to avoid it.
OK, so I have this query where I'm trying to subtract values like this, when I do this I am getting (Arithmetic overflow error converting varchar to data type numeric.) I have tried many different things, and now of these work, it'll either return 0 because it loses the .XXXXX.
Convert(DECIMAL(10,7),CAST([TIME_OF_COMPLETION] as DECIMAL(10,7)) - Convert(DECIMAL(10,7),CAST([OPR_DELIVERED_TIME] as DECIMAL(10,7)) round(cast(cast(hist.[TIME_OF_COMPLETION] AS float) as DECIMAL(15, 5)) - CAST(hist.[OPR_DELIVERED_TIME] AS FLOAT),1 SELECT convert(FLOAT,CAST('735509.00053' AS DECIMAL(10,5))) - convert(FLOAT,CAST('735509.00047' AS DECIMAL(10,5)))
Hi, It is not exactly what I stated in the subject - It's an outcome - exception thrown while executing non-query command. I get this exception when I try to execute my stored procedure that takes datetime as one of its parameters. I am using dataset designer to create table adapters and build queries. Then I simply use objectdatasource component that uses one of the table adapters and bind it to for example a detailsview control. When I run this in debug mode and trace the objects everything looks perfect including these datetime parameters. It is sql server that throws the exception. I ran the sql profiler to see what exactly is going on, and I captured the command that is sent by ADO - it's broken into several lines right in the middle of my datetime parameters... this is the source of the problem. Everything is working fine when I take this command and execute it as a single line in the sql management studio. Is there anything about ADO that I do not know?

GO SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER OFF GO SET ANSI_NULLS ON GO
every time I run the query, I get this error message: Error converting data type varchar to datetime.
After removing the double ' around the date and time parts i get the following error when running in QA: Msg 8114, Level 16, State 5, Line 0 Error converting data type varchar to datetime.
I'm moving data from one database to another (INSERT INTO ... SELECT ... FROM ....) and am encountering this error:
Msg 8114, Level 16, State 5, Line 6 Error converting data type varchar to numeric.
My problem is that Line 6 is:
set @brn_pk = '0D4BDE66347C440F'
so that is obviously not the problem and my query has almost 200 columns. I can go through one by one and compare what column is int in my destination table and what is varchar in my source tables, but that could take quite a while. How I can work out what column is causing the problem?
I need to migrate from a DB with a column containing dates as varchar to a new DB which will have a column with the same content as the source DB but in datetime format.
I have tried to use the cast function but i always get a message saying that the conversion result in an out of range error.
I am importing a couple SAS datasets to SQL Server 2008 for a project. The dates are in a float format, they show up as DT_R8 in SSIS. How can I convert these values to SQL server datetime? I have tried dozens of methods I found on-line with no success, I keep getting 'Arithmetic overflow error converting expression to data type datetime.' errors.
I have problem to execute query with interval date.
If try this query I don't have problem and the output is correct:
SELECT * FROM dotable WHERE dotableDate BETWEEN CONVERT (datetime, '01/01/2015', 121) AND CONVERT (datetime, '09/01/2015', 121);Instead if try this I have error: SELECT * FROM dotable WHERE dotableDate BETWEEN CONVERT (datetime, '25/01/2015', 121) AND CONVERT (datetime, '28/01/2015', 121);
[Err] 22007 - [SQL Server]The conversion of a varchar data type to a datetime data type resulted in an out-of-range value.
hi, How do i convert a varchar field into the datetime data type? the reason i need this lies in the requirement that in the earlier data base the column that is hlding the date value is having the data type as varchar. and in the new design the column data type is datetime. i am using sql scripts for the data migration from the older design to the newer and got stuck with this datetime convertion issue. do let me know the best possible solution.
following are the sample data that is theer in the older table for the date.
12/12/2003 1/13/2007 01132004 1-1-2004 1.2.2001
there is no uniformity of the data that is stored currently.
I am new to T-SQL development and here's what I am trying to do.
declare @cmd varchar(255) set @cmd = 'select dbid from sys.sysdatabases where dbid not in (1,2,3,4)'
while (@cmd <=13) begin insert into #dbcheck values (@cmd) Set @cmd = @cmd + 1 end
but it is giving me an error
'Msg 245, Level 16, State 1, Line 3 Conversion failed when converting the varchar value 'select dbid from sys.sysdatabases where dbid not in (1,2,3,4)' to data type int.'
In this query I select from a column that contains numbers, the result I want is a varchar that is always 2 chars wide..
Ie: 7 should be selected as '07' 12 should be selected as '12'
In the Access-query it's rather nicely done with: Format(Str(mycolumn),"00")
I could not find a way to make CONVERT do the same job... but I found that: LEFT('00',2-LEN(CAST(mycolumn as varchar)))+CAST(mycolumn as varchar) will do the job.
But it feels like it could be done nicer.. any suggestions?
Hi, I am trying ot do a count with a clause like this "amtdue >=10000 and amtdue <=25000" --- I get and error that says "Syntax error converting the varchar value '52.91' to a column of data type int" There are 20 million records in the table - this field is formatted as a varchar - can someone help me find the problem?
I am struggling with converting a certain varchar column into an int.I have a table that has 2 fields - one field holds the loan number andthe other field holds the codes associated with that loan number.Here's some example data:Loan# Codes11111 24-13-122222 133333 2-9I need to check the Codes field for certain code numbers. The Selectstatement I'd like to use is:SELECT Loan#FROM Table1 WHERE Codes IN (2, 13, 1)/*My desired results is that all loans from the above example would beselected because they all have one of these codes*/Of course I cannot use the above statement because the Codes field is avarchar. And if I put single quotes around the numbers in my INstatement I don't get the desired results; the fields with multiplecodes are excluded.But how do I convert this varchar to an int? A simple convert or caststatement doesn't work. I've looked all over the web to find how to dothis, but have not been able to figure it out. Any help would be muchappreciated.
I wrote a query that takes the field from one record and compares it to a different field in a different record. When I did it in access it worked. But I did a copie and paste into management studio and it is not working.
SELECT A.TRAN_ID, B.REFERENCE_DATA FROM dbo.BSTRN_HEADER AS B LEFT OUTER JOIN dbo.BSTRN_HEADER AS A ON B.REFERENCE_DATA LIKE A.TRAN_ID &'RECL'
I get the following error message:
Msg 245, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 Conversion failed when converting the varchar value 'RECL' to data type int.
So then I try:
SELECT A.TRAN_ID, B.REFERENCE_DATA FROM dbo.BSTRN_HEADER AS B LEFT OUTER JOIN dbo.BSTRN_HEADER AS A ON B.REFERENCE_DATA LIKE cast(A.TRAN_ID as varchar) & 'RECL'
I get the following error Msg 402, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 The data types varchar and varchar are incompatible in the boolean AND operator.
Tran_id is an integer and reference data is a varchar and I need to convert tran_id to a Varchar
